MATLAB Demonstrations
Of all of the MATLAB demonstrations I viewed, the Earth's Topography demonstration was my favorite because it is interesting to see just how much MATLAB can do with the data it pulled. I was also impressed by the lighting features that we available to make the sphere look more like the globe and by the fact that MATLAB can turn the 2D plot into a 3D sphere.
