How to draw Geosphere in matlab?

Question

How to draw a Geosphere in matlab? By `Geosphere` I mean the way of discretization points on a sphere (Geosphere is, for example in 3Ds Max). On the image below, it is shown `Sphere` (on the left) and `Geosphere` (on the right) In Matlab there is a function `sphere`, which gives such a result: I need to get such an image of a Geosphere. I have a matrix Nx3, with xyz coordinates of every point of Geosphere. UPDATE: I had problem only with displaying (drawing) geosphere, because I already have data - xyz coordinates of every point. Thats why `Gunther Struyf`'s answer helped me and I accepted it. This I got with such way of displaying: (Geosphere of factor = 6, N=362) How to get 3d points of geosphere? I used free library SPHERE_GRID to get points of 3d-sphere. (In library there are different ways of discretization sphere). Also, for calculating points of Geosphere, thanks `@Rody Oldenhuis` for answer below.

If you already have the points, I think you can use the same solution as here:

```
tri = convhull(xyz);
trisurf(tri,xyz(:,1),xyz(:,2),xyz(:,3));
```
