Example maps should be done using cartopy #3

Several deprecation warnings have appeared for the basemap methods used in the tutorial. Furthermore, the development on basemap has slowed down considerably. It makes much more sense at this point to use cartopy as the library has been gaining steam and is under very active development. Going forward, cartopy will likely replace basemap as the standard mapping library for Python.
