Creating Matplotlib Timeline Visualizations
Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 20 minutes
In this lab, you will learn how to create a simple timeline using Matplotlib release dates. A timeline is a graphical representation of a sequence of events in chronological order. Timelines can be created with a collection of dates and text. In this example, we will show how to create a simple timeline using the dates for recent releases of Matplotlib.

Topographic Hillshading with Matplotlib
Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 35 minutes
This lab demonstrates how to use Matplotlib to create topographic hillshading plots using varying blend modes and vertical exaggeration. The purpose of hillshading is for visual purposes to create a 3D-like effect on 2D maps. In this lab, we will learn how to change the blend modes and vertical exaggeration to achieve different visual effects.
