Data

Assignment

Send me scripts/commands to produce three maps and at least one x-y plot. You're welcome to choose from the options I am giving below, or come up with your own maps, mapping your own datasets. If you plot your own data, send these as well!

Running the VirtualBox

Check here if you forgot how that works. Really. Go there if you forgot something.

Simple Plotting

Go to the presentations slides and find the slides that create the simple Alaska maps including coastline. Experiment with with the Alaska example and add your own data.

Now plot these data in an x-y-Plot (see lecture slide example, again)

Play with a prepared example
