MATLAB: Mapshow with DisplayType ‘Surface’

colorgeotiffMapping Toolboxmapshowsurface

Hello,

I have a geotif file that I reprresent using mapshow with DisplayType set as 'Surface'. I would like to change the color of the image. To make it clear, here is my code with comments:

lat =[-50.414 -90.45];

lon=[-17.50 -55.984];

[A,x,y,I] = geoimread('glc_shv10_02.Tif',lat,lon);

%geoimread is a routine to read the data in specifed lat, lon region

% A is 2D array that I like to represnt using mapshow.

% I is the info structure

temp = 1-im2bw(A); % I convert to black and white

mapshow(temp,I.RefMatrix,'DisplayType', 'Surface');

%here I would like to change the color of the Surface from a default %value

Is there a way to change the color?

Hello!

You can use 'colormap' in your program after 'mapshow'. Please refer this link which will be useful for you to analyze different type of 'colormap'.

You can change the FACECOLOR property as shown in the example below:

[filename,pathname]=uigetfile('*.shp','Select the shape file for plotting');
cd(pathname);
shape=shaperead(filename);
%X_poly={shape.X}';
%Y_poly={shape.Y}';
lat=[shape.LAT]'; 
lon=[shape.LON]';
pop=[shape.Pop2000]';
gas=[shape.GasSt]';
%plot data
h=mapshow(shape,'FaceColor','r');
face_color=get(h,'FaceColor');
for i=1:1000
      face_color{i,1}=[0 1 0];
end
for i =1001:2000
      face_color{i,1}=[1 1 0];
end
PropName = {'Facecolor'};
set(h,PropName,face_color);
