<p>Basemap is a toolkit of matplotlib used to plot geographic maps.</p>
<p>With this function you can:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Draw the latitude/longitude grid easily in one line of code, specifying the lat/lon intervals.</p></li>
<li><p>Use rcParams, so all your figures will look more consistent.</p></li>
<li><p>Specify the label pad <em>in points</em> (instead of projection units).</p></li>
<li><p>Place the labels indicating which margins will be used.</p></li>
</ul>
