Colormaps
Browse 386 colormaps with perceptual diagnostics in OKLCh — lightness curve, chroma range, hue path, ΔE uniformity, and colorblind safety scores for every map.
Every colormap is measured in OKLCh: lightness monotonicity, chroma range, hue path, ΔE uniformity, and order preservation under protan, deutan, and tritan simulation. Browse by family or compare maps side by side.
