[cmap_ncolor, cmap_water, cmap_land] = topocolormap(zcolormap, ncolor, dispout)
Description#
Export a topographic colormap
Inputs#
- zcolormap=’topocmap’;
- Colormap for z dataTopographic (Water/Land) colormaps:‘topocmap’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘topocmaprelief’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘topocmapocean’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘topocmapearth’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘blueocean’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘blueoceansea’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘greenearth’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘greenearthland’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘blgrtopocmap’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘blrdtopocmap’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘grayearth’: colormap developed by Arash Karimpour‘etopo1’: ETOPO1 colormap, https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/global/global.html‘gmtglobe’: GMT_globe colormap, https://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/colorbars/‘gmtrelief’: GMT_relief colormap, https://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/colorbars/‘aendekerk’: Colormap from Florian Aendekerk, http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/63590-landseacolormap-m-Any other available color map such as ‘cool’, ‘winter’, etc can be usedColormap can be defined by user as [n*3] array in RGB color format between 0 and 255
- ncolor=256;
Number of colors to be used in colormap
- dispout=’no’;
Define to display outputs or not (‘yes’: display, ‘no’: not display)
Outputs#
- cmap_ncolor
- Colormap for z levels with ncolor number of colors in RGB color format between 0 and 1To convert 0-1 scale to 0-255 scale, multiply cmap_ncolor values by 255
- cmap_water
Colormap for water in RGB color format between 0 and 1
- cmap_land
Colormap for land in RGB color format between 0 and 1
Examples#
[cmap_ncolor,cmap_water,cmap_land]=topocolormap('topocmap',256,'yes');
[cmap_ncolor,cmap_water,cmap_land]=topocolormap('cool',256,'yes');
