I have no idea how to format this .dat gps file from raw gps data into a table with Latitude, longitude, timestamp, and altitude. I will be using this data to create vs time graphs so I think the easiest way to have the data formatted is in arrays for each variable. it was in .dat so i couldn't attach it so here is what part of it it looks like as text.

To read this dat file as a table, the variables have to be aligned as column vectors. Try modifying the dat file as four column vectors i.e., Latitude, Longitude, Timestamp, and Altitude.

Unless there's an existing reader for that file format, you're going to need to read it in as text and parse it into something more structured. You could use readlines to read it into a string array and go from there. Something like this:
s = readlines('gps.dat');
s(contains(s,"^-^")) = [];
s = strip(s); % get rid of leading whitespace
s = erase(s,"#");
s = split(s,': ');
lab = s(:,1);
d = double(s(:,2));
t = table(d(lab == 'lat'), d(lab == 'long'), d(lab == 'Altitude'), d(lab == 'Timestamp'));
t.Properties.VariableNames = ["lat","long","Altitude","Timestamp"];
The resulting table looks like this
>> head(t)
ans =
8×4 table
lat long Altitude Timestamp
