i load a figure ,get from GoogleEarth
and i want to add some points at this figure

i transfore the pixel data to latitude/longitude,that i can plot the points i need
but when i plot this figure( using pcolor) ,color will be changed.

how can i save this new figure with the GoogleEarth's color?

thanks!

a hint:
- try to retrieve the original color map...
- then, apply the cmap...

pcolor scales the colors according to the actual range of data unless
you tell it otherwise.

http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/ref/pcolor.html

The minimum and maximum elements of C are assigned the first and last
colors in the colormap. Colors for the remaining elements in C are
determined by a linear mapping from value to colormap element.

pcolor(C) draws a pseudocolor plot. The elements of C are linearly
mapped to an index into the current colormap. The mapping from C to the
current colormap is defined by colormap and caxis.
