Images or EPS files on maps
---------------------------
The :meth:`pygmt.Figure.image` method can be used to read and
place a raster image file or an Encapsulated PostScript file
on a map. We must specify the file as *str* via the ``imagefile``
parameter or simply use the filename as the first argument. You can
also use a full URL pointing to your desired image. The ``position``
parameter allows us to set a reference point on the map for the image.
Images on figures
-----------------
The :meth:`pygmt.Figure.image` method can be used to read and place an image
file in many formats (e.g., png, jpg, eps, pdf) on a figure. We must specify
the filename via the ``imagefile`` parameter or simply use the filename as
the first argument. You can also use a full URL pointing to your desired image.
The ``position`` parameter allows us to set a reference point on the map for
the image.
