How to create a satellite style map using Plotly and Pandas?
Plotly gives an example of how to create a scattered dots map here:
https://plot.ly/pandas/scatter-plots-on-maps/
This example uses the Atlas style. There is a link to edit the chart on the example page, which will open the Plotly user interface. Here I can select "Satellite Map" which will create the same map but with more detailed information. Does anyone know if there is a way to specify the map type as "Satellite" in the code itself?
I have searched the reference documentation ( https://plot.ly/python/reference ) but could not find information on this setting.

Open the North American precipitation map in edit mode, you will see the following map:
Then select the satellite map instead of the Atlas map.
Left menu: Style → Layout → Map Style Then you can select options such as street, light, dark, satellites or satellites with streets. The street style is selected in the following map. Hope this helps!

I have added one tutorial that explains how to create this type of plot in Python.
