Interact with axesm-Based Maps
Interactively identify the coordinates of a location or display
text on axesm-based maps.
Alternatives to 2-D axesm-based maps are
geographic axes and map axes, which can be used for many tasks,
including exploration, publication, and app building. For a
comparison of the 2-D map displays that you can create using
Mapping Toolbox™ software, see Choose a 2-D Map Display.
