It's same problem for which I asked assistance here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg22520.html
There, Johann provided nifty script with slider, with which help user
can shift colormap and get more "meaningful" image
Also speaking about great Basemap package, only shifting colormap can
be of no use for different regions, as one region could have elevation
from 200m to 3000m for example, while other -2000m to 4000m, making
two region images incomparable.
This is where "set_clim" function can help - if we make, let's nice
hypsometric colormap from -13000 to 9000m we can use this function to
plot region images with same visual information.
Some new "hypsometric" colormaps in Basemap package could find usage
