clear all
close all
%% add paths- define the directory to your folders
addpath('C:\my_data');
addpath('C:\my_data\GRACE_tut');
%% Importing the Shapefiles
M = m_shaperead('continent_polygon');
M1=m_shaperead('South_America_boundary');
M2=m_shaperead('South_America');
M3=m_shaperead('Amazon');
%% Load data
load 'South_America_GRACE_Mascon_2002_2017.mat';
%% Extracting South America
Lat=Lat(:,1); Lon=Lon(1,:);Lon=Lon';
SAlat1=find(Lat<=16&Lat>=-56);
SAlon1=find(Lon<=-32& Lon>=-88);
SA_lat=Lat(SAlat1);
SA_lon=Lon(SAlon1);

Wait until your friend is talkable.
I cannot guess
- what's in South_America_GRACE_Mascon_2002_2017.mat or
- how the function m_shaperead works

Hi Ikechukwu,
My understanding of your question is that you receive an error "Warning: Name is nonexistent or not a directory: C:\my_data" while accessing the data files of your project. The reason for this is that you're trying to access the file from a location where it doesn't exist. So to solve your issue, change the address present in the addpath function to the address where your project files are stored. If you want to get the address of the file, right-click on the project file and copy the location present there(assuming you're a windows user). Then you won't be getting the error.
For example, suppose your file is present in the downloads folder, then change the code to:
addpath('C:\Users\(yourusername)\Downloads\(yourfilename)');
This would solve your issue.
