这是一个小型的Matlab脚本，可以完成这项工作(使用一些GUI，在图的斜角处读取guidlines)：

%// Import the data:

imdata = importdata('your_picture_file');

Gray = rgb2gray(imdata.cdata);

colorLim = [-1 1]; %// this should be set manually

%// Get the area of the data:

f = figure('Position',get(0,'ScreenSize'));

imshow(imdata.cdata,'Parent',axes('Parent',f),'InitialMagnification','fit');

%// Get the area of the data:

title('Click with the cross on the most top left area of the *data*')

da_tp_lft = round(getPosition(impoint));

title('Click with the cross on the most bottom right area of the *data*')

da_btm_rgt = round(getPosition(impoint));

dat_area = double(Gray(da_tp_lft(2):da_btm_rgt(2),da_tp_lft(1):da_btm_rgt(1)));

%// Get the area of the colorbar:

title('Click with the cross within the upper most color of the *colorbar*')

ca_tp_lft = round(getPosition(impoint));

title('Click with the cross within the bottom most color of the *colorbar*')

ca_btm_rgt = round(getPosition(impoint));

cmap_area = double(Gray(ca_tp_lft(2):ca_btm_rgt(2),ca_tp_lft(1):ca_btm_rgt(1)));

close(f)

%// Convert the colormap to data:

data = dat_area./max(cmap_area(:)).*range(colorLim)-abs(min(colorLim));现在，您正在寻找data。

以下是使用问题中的图形输出的说明：

figure('Position',[100 200 1200 400]);
