I have so far plotted a line to represent the ground topology and the topology of a sub-surface layer. What I would like to know is, is it possible to shade the area between these two plotted lines and have the colour change to represent changing resistivity? if this is possible how would I go about that? > > > > Cheers, > > > > Deiniol > > % Perhaps > > doc area > > % will help. Look at the Examples section.
Also, if your resistivity data is more of a continuous function, rather than discrete blocks, you can achieve the effect using patches:
x = 1:100; y = rand(1,100); c = sin(x); xq = [x(1:end-1); x(2:end); x(2:end); x(1:end-1); x(1:end-1)]; yq = [y(1:end-1); y(2:end); zeros(2, nx-1); y(1:end-1)]; cq = [c(1:end-1); c(2:end); c(2:end); c(1:end-1); c(1:end-1)]; patch(xq, yq, cq, 'edgecolor', 'none')
