How can I plot my coórdinates on top of the map, Ans how can I choose my own area? Cannot find a tutorial on the subject.

In the code my questions

kind reagrds Ellen

land = readgeotable("landareas.shp");

geoplot(land)

%how can I limit the chart lat 50-52 and lon 2.5-4.5

% and show the coordinates above this chart?

% Is there a tutorial how to?

% Coördinates to display

station1_lat = 51.9775;

station1_lon = 4.12;

station2_lat = 51.619722;

station2_lon = 3.681944;

station3_lat = 51.442222;

station3_lon = 3.596111;

station4_lat = 51.233333;

station4_lon = 2.916667;

% create figure

figure;

% Plot the stations on the map

geoshow(station1_lat, station1_lon, 'DisplayType', 'point', 'Marker', 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'r', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'r', 'MarkerSize', 10);

geoshow(station2_lat, station2_lon, 'DisplayType', 'point', 'Marker', 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'b', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'b', 'MarkerSize', 10);

geoshow(station3_lat, station3_lon, 'DisplayType', 'point', 'Marker', 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'g', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'g', 'MarkerSize', 10);

geoshow(station4_lat, station4_lon, 'DisplayType', 'point', 'Marker', 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'm', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'm', 'MarkerSize', 10);

% add a legend

legend('Hoek van Holland', 'Roompot Buiten', 'Vlissingen', 'Oostende');

% add a title

title('Kaart met de locaties van de stations');

land = readgeotable("landareas.shp");
geoplot(land)
geolimits([50 52], [2.5 4.5]) % Set geographic limits

% Coördinates to display
station1_lat = 51.9775;
station1_lon = 4.12;
station2_lat = 51.619722;
station2_lon = 3.681944;
station3_lat = 51.442222;
station3_lon = 3.596111;
station4_lat = 51.233333;
station4_lon = 2.916667;
% create figure
hold on
% Plot each station with specific colors
geoplot(station1_lat, station1_lon, 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'r', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'r', 'MarkerSize', 6, 'DisplayName', 'Station 1')
geoplot(station2_lat, station2_lon, 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'b', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'b', 'MarkerSize', 6, 'DisplayName', 'Station 2')
geoplot(station3_lat, station3_lon, 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'g', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'g', 'MarkerSize', 6, 'DisplayName', 'Station 3')
geoplot(station4_lat, station4_lon, 'o', 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'm', 'MarkerFaceColor', 'm', 'MarkerSize', 6, 'DisplayName', 'Station 4')

hold off
% add a legend
legend({'land','Hoek van Holland', 'Roompot Buiten', 'Vlissingen', 'Oostende'},'Location','northeastoutside');
% add a title
title('Kaart met de locaties van de stations');

Here are some Geographic Plot Examples. The geoshow function does not work with a geographic axes, but rather with axesm-based map (previously referred to as map axes).
