I have a shapefile with a transverse mercator projection. It also has false northings/eastings values associated with it in ArcGIS. I am trying to map the polygons onto a Europe map,but they are not showing up on it. When I use worldmap world the polygons show up in Africa...even though they are supposed to be in Ireland. How can I plot my polygons in the right place? They have Lat Lons associated with them, so I think it has to be the projection.
S = shaperead(polygons.shp','UseGeoCoords', true)
h=axesm('tranmerc','FalseEasting',60000,'FalseNorthing',750000,'Grid','on','Frame','on', 'MlabelParallel',0,'PlabelMeridian',0)
When I try to plot the lat lons, they end up in Africa:
h=plot([S.Lat],[S.Lon], 'k:');
Or when I try and use 'geoshow' they fill up the map completely with a color:
geoshow(S,'FaceColor',[1 1 .5],'EdgeColor',[.6 .6 .6]); enter image description here
