Can anyone help me how to plot latitude and longitude on a world map using matlab. I have the mapping toolbox and have been trying to use the function geoshow, however I can´t get it right. I plot the world map using plot_google_map:

plot(lon,lat,'.k','MarkerSize',6)
hold on 
plot_google_map('maptype','roadmap')

This is the figure I get:

enter image description here

However I am not able to get the latitude and longitude grid on this picture.

I'm not sure is this going to help, but try reversing the order of your plot statements - its possibly that the map plot may be overwriting all the data of the lon and lat data.

Alternatively, if the function allows for it, plot the map as the back layer.
