M_Map: A mapping package for Matlab

http://www.eos.ubc.ca/~rich/map.html

Instead you have to figure out how to save all your data, and then read it into another program (like, for example GMT ), and then spend all that extra time figuring out why it doesn't give you what you expected it would...or you can invest in Matlab's own mapping toolbox (with a similarly steep learning curve)... or not!

M_Map is a set of mapping tools written for Matlab v5 and later. These include:

1. Routines to project data in 19 different spherical projections (and determine inverse mappings)
2. A grid generation routine to make nice axes with limits either in lat/long terms or in planar X/Y terms.
3. A coastline database (with 1/4 degree resolution)
4. A global elevation database (1 degree resolution)
5. Hooks into freely available high-resolution coastline and bathymetry databases
