Hi,
I am working on a project and basically, I'm trying to import a map of US with the counties marked on it. my purpose is to add data about each county, specifically about the concentration of different ethnicities. Then, I want to give each county a certain shade of color based on the concentration.
Does Matlab have a feature which can detect the counties on a map? if so, can each element (county) store data and be assigned individual colors?
I am experienced in Matlab and have coded a lot of numerical analysis projects before. This is a side project, and I've never worked with image importing and detection in Matlab, which is why I'm asking.
Thank You

        Assuming you have the mapping toolbox, you could just import it via a shape file. They can be found below:
