12 Dec 2012 GEplot GEplot uses the same syntax as the Matlab plot function, but draws over Google Earth graphs Author: Rafael Palacios Bryant, Rod

I am relatively green with Matlab and very green with kml. This seems just what the doctor ordered but I have a problem similar to Tomas Frank:
??? Error using ==> iofun\private\getArchiveEntries
File "GEimages/circle_r.png" does not exist.
Where can I find the symbol files? Can anyone help? Thanks.

Kristen There is nothing wrong at line 80.

It only checks whether the given northing is from Northern or Southern Hemisphere. The S is for Southern hemisphere, and will be subsequently used to determine the latitude.

The script only determines how much above or below the given point is from the Equator. For Northern hemisphere, northing gives this measure. For Southern hemisphere, you find it by subtrating northing - 10000000. Note that in UTM for Southern hemisphere, the equator is given a northing of 10000000.

My comment was incomplete... I fixed my version by replacing line 80 with:

if and(utmzone(i,4)>'M',utmzone(i,4)lessthan'R')

I agree with Carlos Castillo, on line 80 there is no option for it to go to "S". If the utmzone is N or S, it will always default to hemis = 'N'; so I fixed this in my version by replacing this line with :
if and(utmzone(i,4)>'M',utmzone(i,4)<'R')

Otherwise, a very useful script! Thank you.

Daniel... you may look details of the UTMIP.m function by Gabriel Ruiz Martinez.

It seems you only need to give different parameters for NAD27 and rest of the script remains the same.
