Re: [Matplotlib-users] basemap scatter

I'm afraid the scatter plot does not allow afterward adjustment with size
currently (by using setp).
Probably you should redraw the scatter points with different sizes. like

for x,y,z in zip(xlist,ylist,sizelist):
     m.scatter(x,y,s=z)

if you question is to change the real 2km or 1.5km to the size on the map,
sorry I don't know as I never did this. Probably you need  consider
projection.
