: Specifically designed to digitize X-Y scatter plots from pictures. It is frequently updated and used for basic 2D data extraction.
: Detailed walkthroughs for tools like Gravit (or GRABIT) demonstrate how to load images, calibrate linear or log axes, and export data directly to the MATLAB workspace. General Digitization Workflow plot-digitizer-matlab
Several powerful MATLAB-based tools and blog resources exist for digitizing (extracting data from) plots in images. The most effective approach typically involves using specialized GUI tools from the MATLAB Central File Exchange . Top MATLAB Plot Digitization Tools : Specifically designed to digitize X-Y scatter plots
: For a manual, code-based approach, you can use the built-in ginput function. A common workflow involves loading an image with imread , displaying it with imshow , and then using ginput to capture pixel coordinates and transform them into graph coordinates using a calibration algorithm . A common workflow involves loading an image with
: For those looking to automate the process, Steve Eddins’ blog post Automating Data Extraction provides a deep dive into using the Image Processing Toolbox to extract data from line plots.
