Convert decimal degrees to its degrees and minutes components.
Separates the fractional part of an angle in decimal degrees and
converts it into minutes. Each row of the output corresponds to
one angle, the first column to the degree component (an integer),
and the second to the minutes (which may have a fractional part).

-- Function File: SYMSPEC = makesymbolspec (GEOMETRY, {"Default",
PROPERTY1, VALUE1, ...})
-- Function File: SYMSPEC = makesymbolspec (GEOMETRY, {ATTR, ATTVAL,
PROPERTY1, VALUE1, ...})
Create a symbol specification structure for use with mapshow.
Each symbolspec refers to one geometry type. GEOMETRY can be one
of "Point", "MultiPoint", "Line", "PolyLine", "Polygon", or
"Patch". The following argument(s) are rules. Each rule is a
separate cell array. The first entry of a rule must be the string
"Default" of an attribute/value pair. The attribute ATTR should
conform to the attributes of the map feature to be drawn with the
symbolspec; often these are the attributes of shapefiles. The
value ATTVAL can be a:
* Numeric value or range of values (row vector). Map features
with attribute ATTR values equal to, or in the range ATTVAL
(end points inclusive) will be drawn with the propety/value
pairs in the rest of the rule. These include X and Y
coordinates.
* Logical value. The map features with values for attribute
ATTR equal to ATTVAL will be drawn with the propety/value
pairs in the rest of the rule.
* Character string. Those map features with ATTR text strings
corresponding to ATTVAL will be drawn with the propety/value
pairs in the rest of the rule.
In case of oct-type structs (see shaperead.m) additional attributes
are available:
'X'
'Y'
'Z'
'M'
X, Y, Z or M-values of vertices of polylines / polygons /
multipatches are used to indicate the matching shape features
are to be drawn. A matching value of just one sigle vertex of
poit in the specified range suffices to match a shape feature.
'npt'
npt encodes for the number of vertices for each multipoint,
polygon, polyline or multipatch shape feature in the original
shapefile.
'npr'
npr encodes for the number of parts of each shape feature.
The property/value pairs for each rule should conform to the
geometry type. That is, for (Multi)Point features only marker
properties may be specified, similarly for Lines/Polylines (line
properties) and Polygons/Patches (patch and fill properties).
The case of input geometries and properties does not matter;
makesymbolspec will turn them into the "official" casing.
symsp1 = makesymbolspec ("Line", {"TAG1", "road", ...
"color", "b"})
(draw polylines tagged "road" as blue lines)
symsp2 = makesymbolspec ...
("Line", {"TAG1", "road", "color", "b", ...

light brown lines)

{"M", [10.01 20], "Facecolor", "b"}, ...

(Note: only possible with oct-style shapestructs; create a
symbolspec using M-values in three classes)

Draw a map based on raster or shapefile data.
DATA can be:
* The filename of a GIS raster file (any file supported by the
GDAL library) or of an ArcGIS shapefile. mapshow will invoke
rasterread.m and rasterdraw.m.
* A raster band struct created by rasterread.m; in that case the
corresponding raster info struct (also made by rasterread.m)
is required as second input argument.
* A struct created by shaperead.m. DATA can be a mapstruct or
an Octave-style shape struct.
* The base name or full file name of an ArcGis shape file.
mapshow will invoke shaperead.m and shapedraw.m
If the first two arguments to mapshow.m contain numeric vectors,
mapshow will simply draw the vectors as XY lines. The vectors can
contain NaNs (in identical positions) to separate parts.
For raster maps currently no further input arguments are
recognized. For shapefile data, optional argument CLR can be a
predefined color ("k", "c", etc.), and RGB triplet, or a 2 X 1
column vector of predefined colors or RGB triplets (each row
containing a predefined color or triplet). The upper row will be
used for points and lines, the lower row for solid shape features.
For XY data, only the first row is used. One-character color codes
can be preceded by one-character linestyle indicators (":", "-",
"-", "-.") to modify the linestyle for polylines, or marker styles
("o", "*", ".", "+", "," ">", "<", "s", "d", "h", "v", "^") for
points.
Any other arguments are considered graphics properties for
(multi-)points, polylines and polygons and will be conveyed as-is
to the actual plotting routines.
Additionally, if the first argument is a shape struct, mapshow
accepts a property-value pair "symbolspec" (minimum abbreviation
"symb") with a value comprising a cell array containing
instructions on how to display the shape contents. Multiple
sympolspec property/value pairs can be specified.
Return argument H is a handle to the plot figure.
Examples:
H = mapshow ("/full/path/to/map")
(draws a raster map and returns the figure handle in H)
H = mapshow ("shape.shp", ":g")
H = mapshow ("shape.shp", "color", "g", "linestyle", ":")
(draws a polygon shapefile "shape.shp" with green
dotted lines and return figure handle in H)
mapshow (X, Y, "k")
(plot vectors X and Y in black color)
mapshow (X, Y, "-.r", "linewidth", 5)
(plot vectors X and Y as a dashdotted thick red line)
mapshow (data, "symbolspec", symsp1, "symb", symsp2)
(draw contents of shapestruct (or mapstruct) data
according to the symbolspecs symsp1 and symsp2)

Converts distance to angle by dividing distance by radius.
Calculates the angles DEG for the distances NM in a sphere with
RADIUS (also in nautical miles). If unspecified, radius defaults
to 6371 km, the mean radius of Earth and is converted to nautical
miles internally.
Alternatively, SPHERE can be one of "sun", "mercury", "venus",
"earth", "moon", "mars", "jupiter", "saturn", "uranus", "neptune",
or "pluto", in which case radius will be set to that object mean
radius.

-- H = rasterdraw (DATA)
-- H = rasterdraw (DATA, RINFO)
-- H = rasterdraw (..., PROPERTY, VALUE, ...)
Draw a GIS raster map.
DATA can be a file name of a GIS raster data file, or a raster data
struct made by rasterread; in the latter case input arg RINFO, a
raster info struct also made by rasterread, is also required.
Optionally, property/value pairs can be specified. Only the first
four characters of the property need to be entered. The following
property/value pairs are recognized:
* 'bands': The value should be a scalar value or vector
indicating which band(s) will be drawn in case of multi-band
raster data. The default is all bands if the data contains
three bands of integer data type, or the first band in all
other cases. For non-integer raster data only one raster band
can be specified. The number of bands must be 1 or 3.
* 'colormap': The value should be a valid colormap to be used
for indexed raster data.
* 'missingvalue': A numerical value to substitute for missing
values in the raster data. Default is NaN (for floating point
raster data).
The optional output argument H is a graphics handle to the map.
If the raster data to be plotted comprises just one band and a GDAL
colortable, that colortable is converted to a colormap and used for
drawing the map. The actual raster data are converted to uint8 if
no missing data are present.
Behind the scenes imshow() is invoked for the actual drawing for
integer or single-band data, or pcolor() for floating point data
with missing values.
Note that drawing raster data can be quite slow for big data sets.
Drawing maps larger than ~4000x4000 pixels is therefore not
advised.

containing the various component files, or the name of one of those
component files can be specified.
Output argument BANDS is a struct, or if multiple bands were read,
a struct array, with data of each band: data, min, max, bbox, and
(if present for the band) a GDAL colortable (see GDAL on-line
reference).
Outpur argument BINFO contains various info of the raster file:
overall bounding box, geotransformation, projection, size, nr. of
columns and rows, datatype, nr. of bands.
rasterread.m needs the GDAL library.

-- Function File: [H] = shapedraw (SHP, CLR)
-- Function File: [H] = shapedraw (SHP, CLR, ...)
-- Function File: [H] = shapedraw (SHP, ...)
Plot contents of a shapefile, a map-/geostruct or a struct made by
shaperead.m.
SHP can be a shapefile (will be read and plotted), a struct made by
shaperead, or a mapstruct or geostruct, possibly made by some other
function. shapeplot.m will try to determine the type. Points,
MultiPoints, Polylines, Polygons and MultiPatch shape features can
be plotted.
The optional argument CLR can be a predefined color name ('b',
'green', etc.) or an RGB triplet. The default is [0.6, 0.6, 0.6]
which produces a grey plot. Polygons and MultiPatches can also be
plotted as solid patches; then CLR needs to have a second row
indicating the fill color. Octave does not support transparent
fills yet. Single-character color codes can be combined with
linestyle indicators ":", "-", "-", "-.", ".-" and/or marker style
indicators "*", ".", "+", "@", "v", "^", ">", "<", "d", "h", "o",
"p", "s" to modify the linestyle for polylines.
Other graphics properties for drawing can be supplied either
instead of, or after the color argument and will be conveyed as-is
to the actual drawing routines. Depending on shapetype, the
following proqperties are accepted:
* All shape types: Visible, LineStyle, LineWidth, Marker,
MarkerEdgeColor, MarkerFaceColor, MarkerSize
* Point, MultiPoints, Line, Polyline: Color
* Polygon, MultiPatch: FaceColor, EdgeColor
Polygons with holes can be properly plotted provided the holes are
separate shape feature parts comprising counterclockwise polylines;
the first partial feature must be the clockwise outer polygon. The
Octave-Forge geometry package is required to assess whether
multipart polygons have holes and to properly draw them.
shapedraw.m will search for the geometry package the first time it
is instructed to plot filled polygons. To initiate a new search
later on (e.g., after the geometry package has been loaded), simply
invoke shapedraw without any arguments.
Optional output argument H is the figure handle of the plot.

types of all attributes in the shapefile). Type can be
Numeric, Character or Data.

-- Function File: [OUTSTRUCT ] = shaperead (SHP_FILENAME, OUTSTYLE,
OPTS)
-- Function File: [OUTSTRUCT, ATTS ] = shaperead (SHP_FILENAME, ...)
Read an ArcGis shapefile set (shp, shx and dbf).
Depending on the value of OUTSTYLE some different output formats
will be returned:
'0 (numeric)'
'ml (case-insensitive)'
'm'
Return a Matlab-compatible M X 1 struct with a separate entry
for each shape feature in the shape file. Each struct element
contains fields "Geometry" (shape type), "BoundingBox" ([minX
minY ; maxX maxY]), X, Y (coordinates of points in the shape
item as row vectors). For multi-part items, the coordinates
of each part are separated by NaNs. This output format
supports neither M and Z type nor MultiPatch shape features.
For M and Z type shape features the M and Z values will simply
be ignored. The struct is augmented with attributes found in
the accompanying .dbf file, if found.
For ML-style output, if only one output argument is requested
the attributes in the .dbf file will be augmented to that
struct. If two output arguments are requested, the attributes
will be returned separately in output struct ATTS.
'1 (numeric)'
'ext (case-insensitive)'
'e'
Same as 1 but M and Z type and MultiPatch shape features are
accepted. The resulting output struct is no more
ML-compatible. If the shapefile contains M and/or Z type
shape features the mapstruct or gestruct has extra fields M
and -optionally- Z. Note that MultiPatch shape features may
not have M-values even if Z-values are present. For
MultiPatch shapes another field Parts is added, a Px2 array
with zero-based indices to the first vertex of each subfeature
in the XYZ fields in column 1 and the type of each subfeature
in column 2; P is the number of shape feature parts.
'2 (numeric)'
'oct (case-insensitive)'
'o'
Return a struct containing a N X 6 double array "vals"
containing the X, Y, and Z coordinates, M-values, record nr.
and type of each point in the shape file. If no M or Z values
were present the relevant columns contain NaNs. Individual
shape features and shape parts are separated by a row of NaN
values. The field "idx" contains 1-based pointers into field
vals to the first vertex of each shape feature. Field "bbox"
contains an 8 X M double array of XYZ coordinates of the
bounding boxes and min/max M-values corresponding to the M
items found in the .shp file; for point shapes these contain
NaNs. Field "npt" contains a 1 X M array of the number of
points for each item. Field "npr" contains a 1 X M cell array
containing a row of P part indices (zero-based) for each
Polyline, Polygon or MultiPatch part in the shape file; for
multipatch each cell contains another row with the part types;
for other item types (point etc.) the cell array contains
empty rows. A separate field "shpbox" contains the overall
bounding box X, Y and Z coordinates and min/max M-values in a
4 X 2 double array. If the shape file contains no Z or M
values the corresponding columns are filled with NaNs.
The struct field "fields" contains a cellstr array with names
of the columns. If a corresponding .dbf file was read, the
struct array also contains a field for each attribute found in
the .dbf file with the corresponding field name, each
containing a 1 X M array of attribute values matching the M
items in the .shp file. These arrays can be double, char or
logical, depending on the type found in the .dbf file.
'3 (numeric)'
'dat (case-insensitive)'
'd'
Same as OCT or 0 but without a row of NaN values between each
shape file item in the VALS array.
If a character option is given, just one character will suffice.
The default for OUTSTYLE is "ml".
The output of 'shaperead' can be influenced by property-value
pairs. The following properties are recognized (of which only the
first three characters are significant, case doesn't matter):
'BoundingBox'
Select only those shape items (features) whose bounding box
lies within, or intersets in at least one point with the
limits of the BoundingBox value (a 2 X 2 double array [Minx,
MinY; MaxX, MaxY]). No intersection or clipping with the
BoundingBox value will be done by default!
'Clip'
(only useful in conjuction with the BoundingBox property) If a
value of 1 or true is supplied, clip all shapes to the
bounding box limits. This option may take quite a bit of
processing time. If a value of "0" or false is given, do not
perform clipping. The default value is 0. Clipping is merely
meant to be performed in the XY plane. Clipping 3D shapes may
work to some extent but can lead to unpredictable results;
this is especially true for MultiPatch shape types. For M and
Z type polylines and polygons, the M and Z values are linearly
interpolated for segments crossing the bounding box. As no M
and Z values can be computed for "new" corner nodes, NaN
values are inserted there. For clipping polylines and
polygons the Octave-Forge geometry and octclip packages need
to be installed and loaded.
'Debug'
If a value of 'true' or 1 is given, shaperead echoes the
current record number while reading. Can be useful for very
big shapefiles. The default value is 0 (no feedback). If a
Matlab-compatible output structarray is requested and the
Bounding Box property is specified, the extracted shape
feature indices are added to the field
"___Shape_feature_nr___".
'RecordNumbers'
Select only those records whose numbers are listed as integer
values in an array following RecordNumbers property. Neither
the size nor the class of the array matters as long as it is a
numeric array.
'UseGeoCoords'
(Only applicable if a Matlab-style output struct is
requested). If a value of 'true' (or 1) is supplied, return a
geostruct rather than a mapstruct. If a value of 0 or false
is given, return a mapstruct. The mere difference is that in
a geostruct the fields 'X' and 'Y' are replaced by 'Long' and
'Lat'. The default value is 'false' (return a mapstruct').

-- Function File: STATUS = shapewrite (SHPSTR, FNAME)
Write contents of map- or geostruct to a GIS shape file.
SHPSTR must be a valid mapstruct or geostruct, a struct array with
an entry for each shape feature, with fields Geometry, BoundingBox,
and X and Y (mapstruct) or Lat and Lon (geostruct). For
geostructs, Lat and Lon field data will be written as X and Y data.
Field Geometry can have data values of "Point", "MultiPoint",
"Line", or "Polygon", all case-insensitive. For each shape
feature, field BoundingBox should contain the minimum and maximum
(X,Y) coordinates in a 2x2 array [minX, minY; maxX, maxY]. The X
and Y fields should contain X (or Latitude) and Y (or Longitude)
coordinates for each point or vertex as row vectors; for polylines
and polygons vertices of each subfeature (if present) should be
separated by NaN entries.
FNAME should be a valid shape file name, optionally with a '.shp'
suffix.
shapewrite produces 2 or 3 files, i.e. a .shp file (the actual
shape file), a .shx file (index file), and if SHPSTR contained
additional fields, a .dbf file (dBase type 3) with the contents of
those additional fields.
STATUS is 1 if the shape file set was written successfully, 0
otherwise.

This allows for easy conversion between units, for example:
unitsratio ("mile", "km") * 156
=>96.93391
For conversion between angle units, "degrees" and "radians" are
supported. For conversion between length units, supports units
defined in 'validateLengthUnit'.

Check validity and standardize unit of length.
Confirms that the argument INPUT is a valid length unit as
described on the table below, and returns a string with its
standard name. If UNIT is not a valid length unit, throws an error
with a message following the Octave guidelines. For a more
informative error message, the function name FUNC, the argument
name NAME, and its position in the input IND can be defined.

Wraps X into the [-180 to 180] interval.
X: angle(s) in degrees (single value, vector or ND-matrix).
XWRAP: output value(s) in the range [-180 .. 180] degrees. The
interval [-180 .. 180] is a closed interval: values equal to
negative odd multiples of -180 are mapped to -180, values equal to
an odd multiple of 180 are mapped to 180.
