MatLab Demonstration

Earth's Topography

My favorite MatLab demo was the Earth's Topography because it was more simple than I expected. First you just needed to load an already made data set of the altitude and colormap of the Earth's topography. Next a flat sort of map was plotted on a coordinate grid, then the color was added, and finally it was made into a sphere that looked like the globe. How cool is that??
