Create the scatter plot on a set of geographic axes, specifying the marker size data and the color data. The example specifies the marker as a triangle, rather than the default circle.

MATLAB scatter plots with millions of points are slow and resource intensive. However, most of the points are not visible since they are hidden by other points.

Scatter plots are often used in data analysis, statistics, and research, so understanding how to create one can be very useful. In this article, we’ll walk through the steps to make a scatter plot.
