Determine if a point is over land or water

13 次查看(过去 30 天)
Given a point (latitude, longitude), is there a function or easy way to determine if the point is over land or over water?
I could download coastline data from NOAA and determine if a point falls inside a polygon, but I'd rather not develop an algorithm myself if it already exists.

I see that File Exchange has a function gebconetcdf that someone created, and then I discovered the code that I need:
gebconc = netcdf.open('gebco_2021_n60.0_s10.0_w-90.0_e-40.0.nc', 'NOWRITE');
XGRID = netcdf.getVar(gebconc,0);
YGRID = netcdf.getVar(gebconc,1);
BATHY = netcdf.getVar(gebconc,2);
netcdf.close(gebconc);

For a given lon, lat; use interp2 and get the elevation/ bathymetry value, if the value is negative it is depth and lies in the ocean or water and if the value is positive it lies in the land.

Read about ncdisp. This function will give you variables from there you give the variable name.

Yes, I can see that both ncdisp and ncinfo tell me all about the structure, what I wanted was the few lines of code that allow me to read the binary file into Matlab variables.
