For the interested developer:

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5128 contains the start of a 
nice way to integrate matplotlib output into the rest of Sage by 
trivially wrapping a matplotlib artist in a Sage Graphics() object. 
Finishing this ticket should be easy and would be a good introduction to 
Sage development, if someone wanted to take it up.

That said, it looks like we don't distribute the basemap extension to 
matplotlib by default.  It's big (100MB tarball); it contains lots of 
data by default.  It would be nice to have an optional spkg, though.

To the original poster: it would be very easy for you to install basemap 
into the Sage installation.  Let us know if basemap does what you want 
and if you want instructions for installing it into Sage.

Thanks,

Jason
