Displaying Map and Geospatial Data
The Mapping Toolbox includes extensive support for constructing 2-D and 3-D map displays. These can be simple or sophisticated, and can be tuned to your application. You can readily combine data sets of different scales and modalities in the same display. For example, you can display images and data grids in their correct positions—regardless of cell size, pixel size, or area covered—and then overlay vector map features.With the map display functions in the toolbox, you can:
- Use the interactive Map Viewer and other GUIs to explore your data and modify your maps
- Convert automatically from latitude-longitude to your selected map projection
- Interactively determine mouse positions in latitude-longitude
- Create thematic maps (stem maps, as well as 2-D and 3-D comet and quiver plots)
- Control the latitude-longitude grid and meridian/parallel labels
- Annotate your map with a scale ruler, a north arrow, or contour labels and legends
- Apply special colormaps for contour maps, terrain and bathymetry grids, and political maps
- Specify rules to control the graphic display properties of vector map features based on their nonspatial attributes (for example, display roads as lines using a road class attribute to control line width and color)
