How to do an elevation 3d plot with maps given latitude and longitude and altitude?

Hello,

This post is a continuation of

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/231875-given-a-list-of-altitude-and-corresponding-waypoints-how-can-i-get-a-3d-visualisation-plots#answer_187824

lat = [ 43  43  41  38];
lon = [116 120 126 128];
Alttiude=[10000 5000 2000 1000]

I want to plot the data in 3d overlayed on google map! Any suggestion how to do it? I am using both Matlab 2014 b and 2015a.

Thanks Yashvin

Dear Yashvin,

What you may could try is to use a a custom made file for the file exchange:

• http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/24113-get-google-map
• http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/34694-kml-toolbox-v2-7
• http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/12954-google-earth-toolbox
• http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/20031-google-earth-com-api--example-
• http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/19235-google-maps-loader

When you import this, you can first try to plot the google map for a range longitude and latitude and then try to use a hold on to plot the waypoints into it.

Good luck! Christiaan
