camposm

Set camera position for axesm-based map using geographic coordinates

Syntax

camposm(lat,long,alt)
[x,y,z] = camposm(lat,long,alt)


Description

camposm(lat,long,alt) sets the axes CameraPosition property of the current axesm-based map to the position specified in geographic coordinates. The inputs lat and long are assumed to be in the angle units of the current axesm-based map.

[x,y,z] = camposm(lat,long,alt) returns the camera position in the projected Cartesian coordinate system.

Examples

Look at northern Australia from a point south and one Earth radius above New Zealand.
