see: http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Scripts/taylor_7.ncl

Download the script and modify the

  CNTL_DIR = "/project/cas/shea/CCM/b30.081/" ; Reference dataset
  TEST_DIR = (/ "/project/cas/shea/CCM/b30.081_di/" /) ; Test dataset directories

  CNTL_CASE = "b30.081"
  TEST_CASE = (/ "b30.081_di" /) ; one or more TEST cases
                                

  SEASONS = (/ "DJF", "JJA", "ANN" /)
  VAR_COMPARE = (/ "PSL", "CLDTOT" , "FLNTC" \
                   ,"PRC", "STRESS_SFC", "U300", "LHFLX_TropPac" /)
  CASES = (/ TEST_CASE /) ; possibly rename if TEST_CASE is long

                                        ; OPTIONAL
  TEST_MARKERS = (/ 16 /) ; one for each TEST_CASE
  TEST_COLORS = (/ "magenta" /)
  PRINT_MINMAX = True
  PLOT_TYPE = "ps"
    
------------------------------------

The above is set-up to work withh CCSM files.
You will have to modify for your situation.

Good luck.
