title: Adding a layer of polygons to an existing plot in Python Matplotlib
body: <p>Currently I'm using the tripcolor function for triangulation and shading of 3D point data. What I'm getting is a cut out of map data. And there is more data I want to use. I also have a shapefile which contains a set of polygons. The goal of my work is to classify roof types. So the shapes in the shapefile are borders which include the roofs in the map you can see. What I have now is the set of points in x- y- and z-coordinates so I can render the map you can see below. How can I add one more layer inside this plot which draws the polygons of the shapes into the map?</p>
  
  <pre><code>plt.tripcolor(x, y, z, shading='gouraud')
  </code></pre>
