Hi all,
I’ve decided to give MATLAB a try for my research project.
I’m trying to create a 3D mesh of given coordinates E, N and elevation.
I can plot all the points using plot3(x,y,z,’.’);
Using an XLSX or csv spreadsheet for the datsets I have removed all unnecessary data such as point name and code leaving only E,N and elevation in a 460×3 table.
And using the patch function it does something but not creating the surface as I would like it as a mesh.
I would also like to set some parameters when creating the mesh i.e don’t create surface between outside points where distance between those points is greater than say 20m.
Attached is a screenshot of where I am up to.
Kind regards,
