Texture mapping matlab

Greetings,
I have 2 queries, first related to texture mapping and the second related to interpolation. Any help is appreciated :).
Thanks in advance

1. I am trying to display a VRML file in matlab.
I read the Vertices=V, Faces=F,
Texture co-ordinates RGB values=K
and use the following command to display :
X=V(:,1);Y=V(:,2);Z=V(:,3);
trisurf(F,X,Y,Z,'FaceVertexCData',K,'EdgeColor','interp','facecolor','interp');

However in a new VRML file along with vertex,faces,texture co-ordinates , TEXTURE CO-ORDINATE INDEX is also given.
I need help in mapping texture co-ordinate index to geometry co-ordinate...i.e. what is the texture at a particular vertex (or face)...and I am totally clueless :)

2. I have a surface whose vertices are irregularly sampled. I sample it on a regular grid using griddata.
However my surface spans more than 180 degrees so I have 2 different values of Z for a X,Y. griddata however takes the mean of they two Z values. Is there any way to interpolate Z values of my surface in matlab ? should I convert to cylindrical co-ordinates ?

Thanks for you time, any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Somi
