numbers = xlsread('test.xls');
lats = numbers(:, 1);
lons = numbers(:, 2);
z = numbers(:, 3);
lat1 = 58.4
lon1 = 26.1
z1 = 1.65
lat2 = 58.5
lon2 = 27
z2 = 1.11
desiredLats = lats >= lat1 & lats <= lat2
desiredLons = lons > lon1 & lons <= lon2
desiredZs = z <= z1 & z >= z2
rowsToExtract = desiredLats & desiredLons & desiredZs
extractedRows = numbers(rowsToExtract, :)
