A Munro (About this sound listen (help·info)) is a mountain in Scotland with a height over 3,000 feet (914 m). Munros are named after Sir Hugh Munro, 4th Baronet (1856–1919), who produced the first list of such hills, known as Munro's Tables, in 1891... says Wikipedia, more in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munro.
Let's show the possibility to plot histograms in the maps with the help of folium library.
