Hi, Adding some extra work in the readshapefile method in your code allows you to play with the region names etc,... I've just made a new tutorial script to show this : http://www.geophysique.be/2011/01/27/matplotlib-basemap-tutorial-07-shapefiles-unleached/ Thom ********************** Thomas Lecocq Geologist Ph.D.Student (Seismology) Royal Observatory of Belgium ********************** Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 17:59:03 +0800 From: eri...@gm...

BTW, would you like to give some suggestions about how to color the map, i.e., highlight a specific region?

Empirically, one can draw its own country by specifying the lats and longs like this example: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/basemap/doc/html/users/geography.html And you can use the method: drawcontries() to draw the country boundries, but all the countries are in the same colour. Does anyone know how to highlight a specific country? Thanks in advance.
