error using meshgrid: out of memory

I have two vectors. Latitude and longitude, each 90267 in length. I want to create a 2D grid (using meshgrid) and then interpolate temperature values at these points. However, I get an out of memory error. I tried preallocating the matrix ones(90267,90267) but it still uses too much memory. Any way around this?

I would use a coarser resolution (fewer elements in the original vectors you give to meshgrid). Interpolate your dependent variable data as necessary.

That's what I ended up doing. Thank you.

My pleasure.
