Map Background

Hi,

I am running Hysplit for backward trajectories in Mexico.

Could you please give an advice on a Map that we can use for the background that also displays the States in a different country ?
For the moment, we only have the country line but no States yet. Since we are doing some relatively high resolution runs, it would help us to better identify regions of interest.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best

There is a shp file for Mexico in the ~/hysplit/graphics directory. Please follow the Readme_graphics.txt to use it in the plotting program.
