geotiff plot on lat-lon axes

Hi all,

I'm trying to plot data from a geotiff file onto lat-lon axes. Seems like it should be easy, but I keep getting error messages and can't understand why. Any advice much appreciated! My code:

% read the data

[june_swe,R] = geotiffread('snwe_flx_ccsm3a2bcsd_20100531.tif');

% plot the data

figure

mapshow(june_swe, R)

Error message:

Error using mapshow Expected input number 1, I or X or RGB, to be one of these types:

uint8, uint16, double, logical

Instead its type was single.

Error in validateMapRasterData>parseImageInputs (line 108) validateattributes(A, {'uint8', 'uint16', 'double', 'logical'}, ...

Error in validateMapRasterData>validateImageComponent (line 92) [A, R] = parseImageInputs(mapfcnname, dataArgs{:}, cmap, rules );

Error in maprastershow (line 126) [Z, SpatialRef, displayType, HGpairs] = ...

Error in mapshow (line 228) h = showFcn(varargin{:});

Do you found the solution? I have a same issue!
