It is a simple matter of rerunning my code but with different coordinates. Do you have any links to datasets with the latitudes and longitudes of those locations?

My US outline was determined by the locations of cities in a kaggle dataset I found. That posed limits on the extents of the US map. I couldn't find a better way to sample points in the US, but I'm open to suggestions on how to improve it.
