# The purpose of this example is to demonstrate how to draw a quadrangle on a
# map using :meth:`~sunpy.map.GenericMap.draw_quadrangle`. A quadrangle has
# edges aligned with lines of constant latitude and longitude in some
# coordinate system. We start with the sample AIA image.

aia = sunpy.map.Map(AIA_171_IMAGE)

###############################################################################
# Now let's define the bottom-left corner of the quadrangle. Note that we
# define it in a different coordinate frame (heliographic Stonyhurst) than the
# coordinate frame of the map (which is helioprojective Cartesian).

bottom_left = SkyCoord(30*u.deg, -10*u.deg,
                       frame=HeliographicStonyhurst, obstime=aia.date)

###############################################################################
# Now let's draw a quadrangle on the map, with a width of 20 degrees and a
# height of 60 degrees. Because the coordinate frame of ``bottom_left`` is
# in `~sunpy.coordinates.frames.HeliographicStonyhurst`, the width and height
# correspond to the longitude and latitude directions, respectively, in that
# coordinate frame.

ax = fig.add_subplot(projection=aia)
