similar to: using contour() with x,y,z data?

Hi all, I use kriging to interpolate the precipitation from stations, but the map of this results show lots of stripes. (please see the attachment)I think there's something wrong with the setting of the dimension of this matrix, however, I have no idea how to know or test to see if this setting is correct or not.I've tried to switch the latitude and longitude, but still got the same

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

Dear all, there is much in these forums about adding a line to a contour/filled.contour plot, but I haven't found hints for the following. I apologize in advance if I just missed the right one. I'm having a standard filled.contour plot to which I want to add a line passing through some specific z-values at some specific x, without knowing the y coordinates. There should be a way of

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

I've been thinking of adding the possibility of including "z" among the axes to be logged in image, contour, and persp. In the first two, it would only affect where the breaks were set if they are calculated automatically; it would have a bigger effect in persp. For example, image(x, y, z, log="z") would set 12 colours evenly spaced on a log scale of the z values.

I am trying to create a topographic map of an island - the filled.contour function works fine except i am experiencing difficulty trying to represent the sea properly. Basically I want the default colour blue for any instance where z=0, if I simply use the default topo.color I get shades of blue for z values up to 220 metres. Is there a way in which I can specify terrain.color for all values of

Greetings all! I'm wanting to plot contours of a function, and I don't want to evaluate it at a dense grid of points (i.e. I don't want a huge array of values). Say I have a vector of x-values such as x <- 0.1*c(1:10), and the same for y <- 0.1*(0:10). I then evaluate a 10*10 matrix z of values of z = f(x,y). so I can then do CL <- contourLines(x,y,z) and get a list of

Dear R users, I have created a Loess surface in R, in which x is relative longitude by miles, y is relative latitude by miles, and z is population density at the neighborhood level. The purpose is to identify some population centers in the region. I'm wondering if there is a way to determine the coordinates (x,y) of each center, so I can know exactly where they are. Let me use the

Hi all, Does anybody know how to add contour lines to a filled contour plot? I want to draw a single contour around values that are above a certain level (e.g., significant). The problem I'm having is that since the filled.contour command actually draws two plots (data and the key), adding contour lines paints them over both plots. Any suggestions? Thanks, Andy #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello, I'd like to remove color bar from "filled.contour" plot. Is it possible and how? I also want to overlay "contour" plot on filled.contour but due to scaling of the "filled.contour" to account for the color bar, aspect ratio for "contour" is different from "filled.contour". Can this problem be solved? Thanks, Mark

Dear all, We used the following function to create a spatial plot of a raster image: filled.contour(xx,yy,zz, color = terrain.colors, nlevels=10, main=naamjaar, plot.axes = { contour(Xcoord/1000,Ycoord/1000,lim.data, nlevels = 4, col=4,drawlabels = T, axes = FALSE, frame.plot = FFALSE, add = TRUE);axis(1); axis(2);

Dear All, I have a question on overlaying a filled.contour (e.g. on soil properties data) and contour (by elevation) in one graph. Both have the same z matrix dimension. I'm able to overlay both graph, but the plots dimension did not overlap well on the same plots. How can I have both filled.contour and contour on the same graph? The commands that I have written are as follows:

A follow-up to my previous query. Say one of the results returned by contourLines() is C.W <- contourLines(....) Then C.W is a list of (in this case 28) lists, each of which is a list with components $level (a single number), $x (the x coords of the points on a contour at that level) and $y (the y coords). I can of course get these individually with, for the 5th one for instance,

Dear R help contributors, I'd like to plot ground temperature with time on X-axis and depth on Y-axis on this datasets ( http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n3301033/NEdaily.csv NEdaily.csv ), and to do so I use the following commands: library(RSEIS) xNE <- seq(1, as.numeric(as.Date(max(NEdaily[[1]])) - as.Date(min(NEdaily[[1]]))), 1) yNE <- rev(c(-0.3, -0.5, -0.7, -0.9, -1.1,

Dear all, I wonder about what could actually be possible with the function "contour": 1/ - the definition of contour lines is most often meaningless when the contours are drawn in areas where no real data points exist. It can however happen that irregular distributions lead to more or less irregular clouds of data points. Interpolations (eg: loess regression, GLM, etc...) are however

Dear R-users, I haven't found a way in the searchable archive to overplot a contour (lines) over a surface. I have a (n,m) matrix that represents sea surface temperature that I have plotted using image.plot(), filled.contour() or image(). I would like to overplot this image with some contour lines of mixed layer depth values(same size matrix). How can I do this? Any help is appreciated,

Dear R community, I'm having hard time to understand the kde function in "ks" package. Let me use a 3-dimensional kernel smooth example to explain my question using the elevation data in geoR. ### here is what I did ### library(ks) require(geoR) data(elevation) elev.df <- data.frame(x = elevation$coords[,"x"], y = elevation$coords[,"y"], z = elevation$data)

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/

Is it possible to create a contour plot with the isolines labeled. I know you can do this with Matlab. Argh! I tried creating a filled contour plot, then using par(new=T), followed by overlaying the contour plot on top. However, the placement of the filled contour plot and the contour plot do not align correctly. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Jon -- View this message in

I am searching for a utility in R which will determine the mean location of a closed contour and eventually record the location in an ASCII file. By means of the contour utility in R, I am able to produce an image of a contour, but I am seeking a procedure which will produce the coordinates of the center of mass of the contour. From my actual set of data, the contour utility will produce several
