Matlab variable and mapping toolbox

Hello,

I need some help with mapping toolbox please.

In fact, I have a program which work with stations which have a structure like this : "Name of the station", "GPS coordinates (lat)", "GPS coordinates (lon)". These variables are stored on Matlab. I want to plot a marker of a station on a map of France. Therefore, I import a shapefile of France by using :

Region_hydro = shaperead('Hyd.shp');
figure(1)
mapshow(Region_hydro);

But now, I have no idea how to plot a marker of my station (a variable on Matlab) which using GPS coordinates on my map of France.

Can you help me ?

Thank you !

If you use geoshow instead of mapshow you can then use plotm(lat,lon,'ro') to plot red circles at the station locations given by lat,lon.
