How do I create clickable icons on a map?

I have many stations in the ocean, with data links. How do I create icons for each station and make them clickable, so that when my users click on them, they are taken to the data download page?

Thank you.

Once I used a push button to do that, and in order to cover the push button I used the logo of the company. So by clicking on the logo you will be directed to the company website, or any other links!

function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
web www.google.com

function pushbutton1_CreateFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)
try
    load logo.mat
set(hObject,'CData',cdata)
catch
    msgbox('FILE MISSED!: Locate all files (x.m  x.fig  logo.mat  logo.bmp) in same place(...\Documents\MATLAB) and make sure none of them missing',...
        'Files Missing','warn')
end

I hope I understood your problem! Good luck!
