MATLAB: 3d plotting of Lat, Long and depth

Question

Hi,

I am trying to create a 3D plot – please see attached image.

However, i need to flip the scale so that the depth (km) increases downwards and I need to plot it in a 1:1 aspect ratio as all 3 axis are not equal in reality… Does anyone know how to do this?

Eventually i will need to plot elipsoid errors around these data points – if anyone has any experience with this, then I would be extremely grateful if you could share how you did it!

Many thanks!!

Try this:

axis equal
ax = gca;
ax.ZDir = 'reverse';
