In this chapter, we learned how to plot on 3D axes and how to make various different kinds of plots within those 3D axes. We also studied how to use basemap to generate map projections between the curved surface of the earth and the flat surface of our screens, how to plot onto these map projections and, finally, how to use basemap to add geographical features to the plots that we produced.
In the next chapter, we will learn about interactive plotting, whereby we can make plots that are no longer static images, but actual interactive applications.
