This submission includes 2 code examples of analyzing and visualizing earthquake data:
1) Creating an interactive map, reading the data from the web, and
2) Using datastore to process a large historical earthquake dataset, enabling results to be compared with a published model.
These files are companions to the MATLAB for Analyzing and Visualizing Geospatial Data webinar delivered on February 24, 2015. They include links to the data.
To watch the video of Loren running these code examples in MATLAB, view the IRIS-sponsored webinar: http://bit.ly/1B58VT4
