Add Geoplot to cartesian plot

I have a cartesian coordinate plot as shown below (with x and y being distances in meters), if I know the (lat,lon) of the origin (0,0), is it possible to overlay a map onto the plot?, with the limits not getting messed up?

Thank you for the help

Hi Ajmal,

I understand you are trying to overlay your Cartesian co-ordinate plot onto a map.

It might be possible to overlay your graph on a map instead using the “axesm” function.

An example of a map being created using the “axesm” function is as follows

coast = load('coast');
axesm('pcarree', 'Origin', 180,'MLabelParallel','south', ...
    'Frame', 'on', 'Grid', 'on', 'Meridian', 'on', 'Parallel', 'on');
mapShow = geoshow(coast.lat, coast.long,'Color','black');

Then you can add your own axes to the map.

You can refer the documentation of “axesm” and “geoshow” for more information on the functions.
