Hello all,
I am currently using Basemap to map a shapefile into a map which works perfect with some shapefiles. I notice it doesn't work with point shapefiles which are only points in a map. Do I have to use another strategy to plot this points from the shapefile? I was thinking to extract the latitude and longitude points from the shapefile and plot those, however, I do not know if that is the best approach. Any feedback would be great.
Thanks so much

Neal,
If you also want to get rid of the lines, you could just color the texts of the legend labels using a VPacker in something like

Dear All,
I drawed map by using basemap that show paralel and meridian line in
geographic coordinate.
How do I add another paralel/line that show line of geomagnetic coordinate?
Thank you....
