Calling Sequence

AddPoints(m,ref)

AddPoints(m,plist)

Parameters

m

-

a WorldMap object

ref

-

a Reference to the GeoNames dataset

plist

-

a nested list representing a list of points

plotopts

-

(optional) plot options for all points in plist

Description

• 

The AddPoints command bulk inserts points into m.

• 

If ref is given, all points in ref get inserted into m.

• 

If plist is given, each point in plist must be a list of either two or three elements. The first element is the longitude (x-coordinate in the Geographic projection), and the second element is the latitude (y-coordinate in the Geographic projection). The optional third element is a string label for the point.

• 

The longitude must lie in the interval [-180,180], and the latitude must lie in the interval [-90,90].

• 

If you want to insert multiple points into a WorldMap object, it is more efficient to use AddPoints than calling AddPoint multiple times for the same functionality.

• 

plotopts specify how all points in plist get displayed. By default, all points are displayed as black asterisks.
