Interpolation between matrices (image attached)

1 view (last 30 days)
I need to do 4 way interpolation where I have the coordinates x1, y1 and a matrix z11 at those coordinates. I have the coordinates x2, y1 and a matrix z21 at those coordinates. I have the coordinates x1, y2 and a matrix z12 at those coordinates. I have the coordinates x2, y2 and a matrix z22 at those coordinates. I need to interpolate to get the MATRIX z for coordinates x and y.
Like in the image attached the matrices at (-4,0), (4,0), (-4,20) and (4, 20) are given. I need to interpolate to get the matrix values for position(0,10)
Can someone please guide me through this

Your query location, (0,10), is in the center of your grid, so if you want a linear interpolation between the input matrices you'll just need to average them:
output = (z11 + z21 + z12 + z22) / 4;

I never thought it could be so simple. I was trying to use interp2 and couldn't get through it. Thank you so much. Cheers!
