How can I import shape file (Yield data points) and display the map?

How can I import shape file (Yield data points) and display the map? My Matlab here does not recognise this file type. Do I have to install the mapping toolbox first?

Yes, you need Mapping Toolbox installed.

Then you can use shaperead() to read a shapefile. and then use geoshow() to visualize it.

If you just want to show it, and no further processing, you can directly use geoshow().

Hi Mohammed I can read shapefile with this command and see the map.

S = shaperead('CityABCD.shp');

mapshow(S)

Question is how do I add this to a basemap please? also what if I want to have multipe shapefiles?
