## Introduction (@weiji14)

- What is GMT/PyGMT?
- Things you can do
- Plotting vector/raster data
- Data processing
-

## Installation (everyone)

- Prepare installation instructions before workshop
- Windows - check that bash scripts work (esp. for GMT scripts)
- Make sure to test that GMT movie works

## Tutorial 1 - Beginning first figure + Subplots/layout (@jhtong33)

- Step-by-step guide on setting up a basic figure
- Downloading global datasets to focus on the region of interest
- Visualizing grids
- Customizing colorbar labels and positioning
- Organizing multiple plots into a single figure using subplots
- Choosing a projection

## Tutorial 2 - Integration with the Scientific Python ecosystem: Pandas and Geopandas (@yvonnefroehlich)

- Plotting pandas and geopanadas data
- Different geometries (point, lines, polygons)
- Chorophelet maps
- Handling apatial data
- Filtering and using different styles / filles for plotting
- Conversion of objects from other python packages to geopandas related objects

## Tutorial 3 - Grids? (@maxrjones)

- Load xarray.DataArray
- ...
- ...

## Tutorial 4 - Geophysics (Seismology) - @jhtong33/@yvonnefroehlich

- Using obspy to download earthquakes and stations
-

## Tutorial 5a - Visualizing Mars: A Quick Guide to Using PyGMT for Orbiter Imagery and Topography (@andrebelem)

- Selecting data from Mars orbiters and topography to use (compatibility)
- Step-by-step guide to plotting satellite images of Mars using PyGMT
- Customizing plots for better visualization
- Techniques for visualizing Mars' topographic data with PyGMT
- Creating detailed topographic maps
- Integrating both satellite imagery and topographic data into a single plot
- Enhancing visualization with color scales, annotations, and other features

## Tutorial 5b - Exploring Antarctic Landscapes: 3D Mapping with IBCSO V2 Data (@andrebelem)

- Selecting and accessing the IBCSO V2 dataset for Antarctic topography
- Step-by-step guide for loading and manipulating topographic data with PyGMT
- Customizing 3D maps for better clarity and aesthetics
- Integrating different data layers to enhance visualizations
- Plotting science data over 3D maps (Integrating Earth Engine Data with PyGMT - TBC)
- Exporting and sharing your visualizations in high-quality formats

## Tutorial 6 - Animations with GMT ( @Esteban82 )

- Understand GMT's approach to making animations
- Explore the movie module
- Explore the events module
- Make a few simple movies

## Final project - DIY?

- Options (if people don't have ideas):
- Cross-profile maps
- Tilemaps (e.g. OSM background)
- Geological map (e.g. USGS, etc)
- LiDAR point cloud processing
-
