Hi Mia,
I understand you're looking for a way to achieve an aspect ratio equivalent to “axis equal” for your geographic plots in MATLAB. As of my knowledge, there is no direct equivalent of “axis equal” for geographic axes because they represent a curved surface (the Earth) on a 2D plane, which inherently involves distortion.
However, you can manually adjust the axis limits to control the map's visible area using the “geolimits” function. This approach allows you to specify the latitude and longitude limits but does not guarantee a uniform scale due to the varying distances that degrees of latitude and longitude represent at different locations on the globe.
Here's an example of how you can set the geographic limits:
% Define the geographic axes
ax = geoaxes;
% Set the latitude and longitude limits
geolimits(ax, [minLatitude maxLatitude], [minLongitude maxLongitude]);
Please replace minLatitude, maxLatitude, minLongitude, and maxLongitude with the desired limits for your geographic axes.
For more information on “geolimits” function, refer to the MATLAB documentation here:
I hope this information proves helpful to you!
