Mapping Images taken at different gps codinates

clc, clear all

% creating and adding path of the image file to matlab

% addpath('../Users/ngabirembabazi/desktop/data');

% cd = ('../Users/ngabirembabazi/desktop/data');

datapath = '/Users/ngabirembabazi/Desktop/Data';

list = dir(datapath);

% sizing the images

[m, n] = size(list);

Images = {};

figure;

% reading and showing the images we got from the files

for i = 3:m

imTmp = imread(list(i).name);

imInfoTmp = imfinfo(list(i).name); % extracting the infomationof the images

Images{end+1} = imTmp;

% imshow(imTmp);

% trying to show image on grid in georeference

% hold on

% info = imfinfo(imTmp);

geoshow(imInfoTmp.GPSInfo.GPSLatitude,imInfoTmp.GPSInfo.GPSLongitude,'DisplayType','image');

pause(0.7);

% imshow(imTmp);

end

% get metadata from image file

% info = imfinfo(imTmp);

imgrid = (imTmp ('grid-im.jpg'));

figure

imshow(imTmp)

hold on

worldmap("United States")

hold off

% Create grid-image

% worldmap('ohio')

% imgrid = (imTmp ('grid-im.jpg'));

% % imshow(imTmp)

% disp(imgrid)

With this code I have been trying to map the images i have in the data path I added. I was able to create the video of images, but I want to map the images to their gps codinates.

Hi Ngabire

I understand that you want to plot your images on a map using the GPS co-ordinates of each image.

Here are a few resources that might help -

• Create Common Plots over Basemap Images - MATLAB & Simulink (mathworks.com)
• How do I add an image on a map? - MATLAB Answers - MATLAB Central

Please have a look at the above links. Hope this helps.
