# 1.4 Laboratory Exercises

We will begin our adventure by making some simple plot axes and coastline basemaps. We will do this in order to introduce the all-important -B, -J, and -R switches and to familiarize ourselves with a few selected GMT projections. The GMT programs we will utilize are psbasemap and pscoast. Please consult their manual pages on the GMT web site for reference.
