If you have "value" as a function of latitude and radius, isn't that a 2D (not 3D) scalar field? Which can be plotted using a regular heatmap. If you want a curved edge where depth=0 (radius=?), that's not too difficult to achieve. Not quite sure what continent boundaries mean in this context, but that could possibly be added to. Or do you want a 2D slice superimposed within a

1. Have you looked here: https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Spatial.html (I assume you have done some web searches on possible terms like "3D Earth Data R" or whatever) 2. You might try posting on the r-sig-geo list rather than here, where relative expertise may more likely be available.

Thanks for your idea. It should be a 2D slice/plane embedded into a 3D space. Could be static, I just need to make a single figure from it for illustration of the Earth together with its interior in 3D. So, the interior would be a slice in 2D along a fixed longitude. And along this 2D slice would be a heatmap. Again, embedded in 3D, since it would be shown as a slice of Earth in 3D. Duncan?s

Dear All, Thanks a lot for the useful help again. I manage to get it done up to a point where I think I just need to apply some smoothing/interpolation to get denser points, to make it nice. Basically, I started from Duncen's script to visualize and make the clipping along a plane at a slice. Then I map my data points' values to a color palette and just plot them as points on this plane.

Good to hear you've made such progress. Just a couple of comments: - You should use points3d() rather than rgl.points(). The latter is a low level function that may have unpleasant side effects, especially mixing it with other *3d() functions like persp3d(). - There are several ways to draw a flat surface to illustrate your data. Which one to use really depends on the form of data.

> It should be a 2D slice/plane embedded into a 3D space. I was able to come up with the plot, attached. My intention was to plot national boundaries on the surface of a sphere. And put the slice inside. However, I haven't (as yet) worked out how to get the coordinates for the boundaries. Let me know, if of any value. And I'll post the code. (But needs to be polished first)

Hi all, I''m trying to figure out how to add a filter into a search. I''ve created the filter, basically copying the location filter from http://blog.tourb.us/archives/ferret-and-location-based-searches. But when I try to call Index.search and pass the filter in a hash with the key :filter, I get back that it is expecting type Data, and so I''m at a loss to figure out

I have drawn a map in which the X and Y axes are latitude and longitude. Now I need to draw one circle on the map - the center is a point with specific latitude and longitude, but the challenge is that the radius is in miles. Is there a way to do this? I'd very much appreciate your response. XM

I am wondering if there is a function which will do a join between 2 data.frames by minimum distance, as it is done in ArcGIS for example. For people who are not familiar with ArcGIS here it is an explanation: Suppose you have a data.frame with x, y, coordinates called track, and a second data frame with different x, y coordinates and some other attributes called classif. The track data.frame has

Dear R'Helpers and Colleagues, I have looked in the documentation, asked to some colleagues in the lab, but was unable to solve the following difficulty. I am running R on a iMac G5 with OS 10.4. The file below (73 rows x 144 col) shows the values of a climatic index on the globe with a grid of 2,5 ? x 2,5 ? (NA = no value): ? With image() and map() and running the following

Dear all, I have been trying to convert coordinates from longitude/latitude to utm but I got an error. As soon as the longitude coordinate is greater than 90, I get the folloowing error message: "error in pj_transform: latitude or longitude exceeded limits" Here is what I did: SP<-SpatialPoints(cbind(126.59,-14.30),proj4string=CRS("+proj=longlat"))

So, I''m working on a search engine of sorts that restricts results to your local area. I can successfully return all entries within 15 miles of a particular point, and I can successfully return all entries that match a search query, but I''m having trouble combining the two together and doing pagination on them. Basically, for the range query, you do a SQL query that returns all

Daniel, muchas gracias por contestar y tan rápido. Pues puede ser la solución, he hecho el cambio y sigue sin pintarme los puntos -> data_ <- toJSONArray(data_, json = F) map$geoJson( # leafletR::toGeoJSON(data_, # # lat.lon = c('Lat', 'Long'), # dest=output_geofile), data_, onEachFeature =

Hi Everyone, I am a graduate student who will be using R to do my analysis. I need to do a spatial analysis, and the first step is to calculate the geographic distance between my study sites. I am hoping to use earth.dist because it allows for multiple pairwise distances to be calculated at one time. I have done a sample calculation, and I seem to have a problem between the steps of using

Hola, Ando un poco desesperado con los mapas interactivos de Rcharts <https://github.com/ramnathv/rCharts>+Leaflet. Estoy intentando pintar en un mapa las cámaras de tráfico de madrid, y las estaciones de calidad del aire, simplemente donde están, es decir, aun no estoy recogiendo los datos de medida.

Dear all, 1. How can I compute the intersecting area between 2 polygons ? 2. I have polygons with coordinates in decimal degrees (i.e. 13 deg 30 min = 13.5 decimal degrees). I want to compute their area and get the results in square meters or square kiometers. Can anyone give me a conversion coefficient or a pointer where I can find this information (sorry for this off topic question) ? Thanks

Hello, I'm trying to plot dayly evolution of the temperature over France from Global Forecast System files ("I'm trying" is the right expression...). akilonlat03 is the temperature for different latitudes and longitudes ? 3 o'clock. akilonlat06 is the temperature for different latitudes and longitudes ? 6 o'clock. I would like to plot akilonlat03 and then akilonlat06

Hello I am trying to draw a basic black and white map of two European countries. After searching some key words in google and reading many pages I arrived to the conclusion that persp() could be used to draw that map. I have prepared three small example files, which are supposed to be the files required for running that function. xvector is a vector with the longitudes yvector is a vector with
