Thanks Ben! That helped. I ended up using this method instead…
map.arcgisimage(service='ESRI_Imagery_World_2D', xpixels = 1500, verbose=
True)
Works great!

That function is merely using the (relatively) lower res image that comes
packaged with basemap, and comes with features to help downsample it if
needed. I think you can get higher res images using the wmsimage() method.
I hope that points you to the right direction!

Hi Folks -
i have a simply Python script below that shows a low res basemap of Maui
using the Blue Marble imagery. Can anyone provide info on how to create a
high res map? Thanks!
- Jorma
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
map = Basemap
