My favorite demonstration is the Earth's Topography demonstration. This demonstration shows how to transform a set of altitude data into a 2D or 3D graph of the Earth's topography. The process, which is done in a relatively small number of steps, creates an incredible visual tool out of a collection of numbers-amazing!
