Available Colormaps

Identifier	Description	WMS Legend Example
`blue_magenta`	Colormap with custom markings for precipitation. The inverted version is `magenta_blue` without custom markers.
`blue_to_red`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling. Also exists as an inverted version called `red_to_blue`.
`blues`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling.
`blues_inverted`	Inversion of `blues`.
`ceiling_height_segmented`	Designed for `ceiling_height_agl` parameters.
`cin_segmented`	Designed for `cin` parameter.
`dwd_warnings`	Segmented colormap intended to be used for warn parameters.
`gray`	Colormap with fixed parameter-dependent scaling.
`gray_inverted`	Inversion of `gray`.
`gray_transparent`	Grayscale from transparent to white.
`jet`	Colormap with fixed parameter-dependent scaling that goes from blue to red with green in between.
`jet_inverted`	Inversion of `jet`.
`jet_segmented`	A segmented version of jet with 40 steps.
`jet_segmented_inverted`	Inversion of `jet_segmented`.
`lifted_index_global`	A colormap specifically created to display the subtle changes of the lifted index on a global scale.
`lifted_index_global_segmented`	A segmented version of `lifted_index_global`.
`magenta_blue`	Inversion of `blue_magenta`.
`periodic`	Periodic colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling. Best used for periodic quantities like directions.
`periodic_inverted`	Inversion of `periodic`.
`plasma`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling that goes from purple to yellow.
`plasma_inverted`	Inversion of `plasma`.
`pollen_europe_segmented`	Colormap for displaying pollen data.
`precip_usa_segmented`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent logarithmic scaling, developed for displaying precipitation according to US standards.
`prism`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling, but without a one-to-one correspondence between values and colors.
`prism_inverted`	Inversion of `prism`.
`radar_log`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent logarithmic scaling, developed for displaying precipitation.
`radar_segmented`	An alternative to display precipitation.
`reds`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling, where the smallest value corresponds to white and the largest one to red.
`reds_inverted`	Inversion of `reds`.
`red_to_blue`	Inversion of `blue_to_red`.
`red_yellow_green`	An inverted traffic light, useful e.g. for visibility where lower values correspond to more problematic situations.
`seismic`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling, similar to `blue_to_red` but with stronger colors.
`seismic_inverted`	Inversion of `seismic`.
`t_europe`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling developed to display temperature in mid-lattitude areas throughout the whole year in pleasant colors.
`t_europe_segmented`	A segmented variant of `t_europe`.
`t_global`	Colormap with fixed parameter dependent scaling developed to display temperature on the whole globe throughout the whole year, focussing on subtle changes.
`t_global_segmented`	A segmented variant of `t_global`.
`traffic_light`	From red to green, best suited for warning parameters where low values correspond to higher risks.
`traffic_light_inverted`	From green to red, best suited for warning parameters where high values correspond to higher risks.
`uv_index_europe_segmented`	Colormap for displaying UV index.
`viridis`	Colormap with fixed parameter-dependent scaling, where the smallest value corresponds to blue and the largest value to yellow.
`viridis_inverted`	Inversion of `viridis`.
`visibility_segmented`	Designed for the `visibility:m` parameter with transparency for high values.
`wave_height_segmented`	Colormap from blue to red, developed for displaying wave heights.
