similar to: contour plots

Hello. Is there an easy-to-use contour plot function analogous to scatterplot3d that can draw handle a dataset of arbitrary (x,y,z) triplets? That is, say x, y, and z are each measured quanties, and exhibit neither order nor regularity. I looked at the lattice package function "contourplot" but it seems complicated, and it's not clear from the documentation whether it can

Hello, I'm dealing with the following problem: I have a table with x and y coordinates and corresponding values of a mineral concentration, let's call it z. Can someone provide me a short step-by-step manual for the steps necessary to get a contour map? How to sort and interpolate my matrix to an equidistant grid which can afterwards be plotted by contour(x,y,z)? (e.g. fill the

Hi, one of the nice things about contour is that it labels all contour lines. contourplot only labels each particular elevation a single time. i.e., if there are two contour lines corresponding to z = 45, it will only label one of them. is there a way to get contourplot to automatically label all the contour lines, even those that are repeated? i ask because i want to plot contour plots *w/

Hello, I'd like to make a z(x,y) plot for irregularly spaced x,y. What are routines are available in R for this purpose? Thanks, Mark

Hi, I have done the interpolation for my data and I was able to create the contours in multipanel with the help of Pascal. Now, I want to clip the contour with the shapefile. I want only the portion of contour to be displayed which falls inside the boundary of the shapefile. The data mydata.csv can be found on https://www.dropbox.com/s/khi7nv0160hi68p/mydata.csv The data for shapefile can be

I understand that I need to have a (in this case) square matrix with all the data. But the question now is; - can the contourplot not interpolate the missing values or alternatively - I have fit a model to the z data (z = 100 + 0.5x + 0.5y). How can I make from this model a "square" matrix z to make a contour plot? Kind regards, Darius Blaszijk ----- Original Message ----- From:

I have four large two-dimensional matrices of which I want to create contour plots. Something like filled.contour(<matrix>) contourplot(<matrix>) works but only gives me one plot at a time. If I combine the four matrices into one three-dimensional matrix, which I'll name "seven", there should be a way of doing something like this contourplot(seven[,,k] for k in 1 to 4)

Dear all, As a newbie in R I would like to do the following (simple?) thing: to plot a filled.contour plot over a map showing country boundaries (e.g. for Europe) What i do is: map('worldHires',xlim=c(-10,40),ylim=c(35,70),boundary = TRUE,border=0.1) map.axes() filled.contour(mslp, zlim=c(1000,1020),color.palette = colorRampPalette(c("blue", "white",

Dear All, I would like to plot a scalar (e.g. a temperature) on a non-rectangular domain (or even better: I would simply like to be able to draw a contour plot on an arbitrary 2D domain). I wonder if there is any tool to achieve that with R. I did some online search in particular on the list archives, found several queries similar to this one but was not able to find any conclusive answer. I

Petr, It works perfectly! But I still have a question; I have fit the following data; x,y,z 1,10,11 2,11,15 3,12,21 4,13,29 5,14,39 6,15,51 7,16,65 8,17,81 9,18,99 10,19,119 >dat.lm <- lm(z~I(x^2)+y, data=dat) >dat.lm Call: lm(formula = z ~ I(x^2) + y, data = dat) Coefficients: (Intercept) I(x^2) y 1.841e-14 1.000e+00 1.000e+00 How do I create the

Friends, I have two covariance matrices (m1 and m2) of same size (150x150). I used contourplot function to make contour plots individually (c1 and c2). I am interested in making one contourplot overlapping the two individual contours so that the portion of the plot above and below the diagonal can represent the c1 and c2. Someone suggest me how can i do the same. Is there any way that i can

OK, I needed to plot a set of vectors on top of a contour plot. I figured out a way to do this. I create a panel function that calls "larrows()" with arguments constructed from my vector data. Then, when I go to do the contour plot, I call contourplot() with the "panel" argument set to point to my newly created panel function. So far, so good. Now, I need to do a

Hello, I would like to make a contourplot of the following data; > x <- 1:10 > y <- 1:10 > z <- 100:110 By doing >contour(x,y,z) I get the following error; "Error in contour.default(x, y, z) : no proper `z' matrix specified" How do I fix this??

With "image" and "contour", one can get both colors and lines to enhance the image of a contour plot. What's the best way to do this with Lattice graphics? The following is one ugly hack, producing the desired result after much trial and error (R 1.9.1 alpha under Windows 2000): # setup DF <- expand.grid(x=1:3, y=1:3) DF$z <- (DF$x+DF$y) # Traditional

Hi all, I'm trying to draw a contour plot with rounded (smoothed) contour lines instead of sharp angles; when the grid consists of only a few points in x- and y- axis, the resulting contour is in facts rather ugly since very sharp angles may appear. I did not find any way to do it, by using either "contour" or "contourplot" (from the lattice package), I wonder if there

Hi All, I am trying to reproduce this using R instead. [image: Full-size image (38 K)] I tried using the following code *SChla <- read.csv("SM_Chla_data.csv")* *Atlantis <- SChla[16:66,]* *head(Atlantis)* * * Seamount Station Depth Pico Nano Micro Total_Ch dbar Latitude Longitud 16 Atlantis 1217 Surface 0.0639 0.1560 0.0398 0.2597 2.082 -32.71450 57.29733

r-help, I can't seem to get the below data organized in such a manner so as to generate a contour plot using any of the functions {lattice.contourplot, base.contour, base.filled.contour}. I was wondering if anyone could please tell me what I need to do to accomplish this. X,Y,Level -31.105,86.911,3843 -3.385,86.911,3896 24.335,86.911,3874 -24.175,79.700,3900 -3.385,79.700,3927

Hi, I was trying to stack a topographic map readed in from esri shapefile with a contour map and a vector map. However, the plotMap(maptools) and contourplot(lattice) do not seem to work well on top of each other. Here is part of my code. xrange<-range(225000:350000) yrange<-range(2685000:2810000) basemap <- read.shape("Twn25_town_dxf_Polygon.shp")

Hi - I have a dataframe with 4 variables - long, lat, temp and year. I would like to plot temperature by lat and long in contour plots by year. There are 391 data points. When I try contourplot(temp~long*lat|year,data=hake,cuts=10,labels = TRUE,contour = TRUE,pretty = TRUE,region=TRUE) I get plots with dots around by data, but not contour lines or filled in regions. I have also used the

Hi, I would like to make a contour plot with the data below, x-axis= Day (increasing order, day number is out of 365 days of a year), y-axis= Depth (varies), and z=pH. I tried to use filled.contour function, but not sure the proper way to ordinate my z results into a matrix with different x and y length. After that, if I attempted to plot the data, the x and y values are not in ascending
