How to Crop India shape file from Global shapefile

10 views (last 30 days)
Hello:
I have two shapefiles: global shapefiles of landuse map and India administrative boundary shapefile. Is it possible to clip/crop the India region using shapefile of India from global shapefile?
The shapefile for India is available in this link: http://otlet.sims.berkeley.edu/imls/world/IND/IND_ADM0.shp
I have attached the global shape file (in Zip) here.

There is no .dbfread file in the zip folder. And the link given downloads on .shp file. To read shape file it needs all supporting files.

There is a .dbf file in the zip folder. For India shapefile with all supporting files are available in this link: https://otlet.berkeley.edu/imls/world/IND/
Kindly consider files associated with IND_ADM0.shp
For global shape file, please download from this link, if the zipped file does not load associated files: https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/dataset/world-maps-k%C3%B6ppen-geiger-climate-classification/resource/274ce998-385d-403b-8196
Please let me know if you have any further issues.

shpFile1 = "c1976_2000.shp" ;
shpFile2 = "IND_ADM1.SHP" ;
S1 = shaperead(shpFile1) ;
S2 = shaperead(shpFile2) ;
P1 = [[S1(:).X]' [S1(:).Y]'] ;
P2 = [[S2(:).X]' [S2(:).Y]'] ;
N = length(S2) ;
%% Get the points from gloabl file from given Indian file
% Remove NaN's from P1
idx = isnan(P1(:,1)) ;
P = cell(N,1) ; % required matrix
% Get the points lying inside shapefile2 from shape shapefile1
for i = 1:N
i
P2i = [[S2(i).X]' [S2(i).Y]'] ;
idx = isnan(P2i(:,1)) ;
P2i(idx,:) = [] ;
idx = inpolygon(P1(:,1), P1(:,2),P2i(:,1),P2i(:,2)) ;
P{i} = P1(idx,:) ;
end
P = cell2mat(P) ;
plot(P2(:,1),P2(:,2),'.b')
hold on
plot(P(:,1),P(:,2),'.r')

With the points use boundary. Read about the function boundary.
