plot3D

Plotting multi-dimensional data.


Description

Functions for visualising 2-D and 3-D data.

Many of the functions are extensions of R's persp or image function.

Other packages that provide visualisation of 3-D data (and which might be better suited) are: rgl, scatterplot3D, misc3D.

Note

This package is dedicated to Carlo.

Note

Some of the functions based on persp will not work properly for all values of phi (which turns the plots upside-down). This is because an assumption is made as to how the perspective plots are viewed.

Functions that are based on the persp function:

Functions defined on the image function:

  • image2D, for an image function to visualise 2-D or 3-D data.

  • ImageOcean: an image of the ocean's bathymetry.

Other plotting functions:

Colors and colorkey:

Utility functions:

  • mesh: to generate rectangular (x, y) or (x, y, z) meshes.

Data sets:

  • Oxsat: 3-D data set with the ocean's oxygen saturation values.

  • Hypsometry: 2-D data set with the worlds elevation and ocean's bathymetry.
