3d Surface Plot Matlab
To use different intervals specify a four element vector of the form xmin xmax ymin ymax.
3d surface plot matlab. Create plots programmatically using graphics functions or interactively using the plots tab at the top of the matlab desktop. But you should start by looking at the help and documentation to trisurf that is the first function id turn to in your case with very few points in your array. Surfl z colormap pink change color map shading interp interpolate colors across lines and faces. To use the same interval for both x and y specify xyinterval as a two element vector of the form min max.
Surface plot with shading the surfl function creates a surface plot with colormap based lighting. All of the standard surface functions surface contour pcolor etc require one of the fields to be a matrix but the data im trying to plot is all in vectors. This example shows how to get properties of a surface plot in matlab and change the property values to customize your plot. 2 d and 3 d plots.
The color of the surface varies according to the heights specified by z. The general syntax to display the 3d plot is plot3 xyz plot3 xyzname plot3 xyzlinespec lets start drawing different types of the 3d plot graph. Fsurf f creates a surface plot of the function z f xy over the default interval 5 5 for x and y. You can also use a specified line style marker and color for drawing 3d plots.

Change the relationship between surface plot data and the colormap. For example you can compare sets of data track changes in data over time or show data distribution.
The function plots the values in matrix z as heights above a grid in the x y plane defined by x and y. Im trying to make surface plots based on data from a satellite. Representing data as a surface. How surface plot data relates to a colormap.
In matlab the plot3 function is used to draw the 3d plot graph. 3d surface plot with three vector. For smoother color transitions use a colormap with linear intensity variation such as pink. You can visualize matrix data on a rectangular grid using surface plots.
