similar to: Contour line coordinates

To everyone, Is there a way to extract coordinates or an equation from a "straight" contour line? Thanks. Cheers Julius Tesoro

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

Hi Folks, I have been using contour() to produce some contour plots (of a spatially-smooted density produced by kde2d()), with very satisfactory results. I now want access to the coordinates of the points on the contours, and it would seem that contour() does not return a value, so there is nothing from which these could be extracted. However, apparently contourLines() does, and it seems to be

I am using contour to draw contour lines onto a photo (jpeg) of a leaf on a white background. I have two problems: 1) The contour gets plotted at right angles to the jpeg image. I guess this is a problem of referencing the start and end points of the image matrix but I can't see how to over come this other than loading in a second image that has been rotated 90 degrees and plotting the

Requisite info: R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) running on a 64 bit HP Windows 7 machine. Greetings, R-ians: I have used contour() for several years. Now I would like to extract from a contour plot the x, y coordinates of a contour z=constant. This seems as though it would be straight-forward but I''ve been unsuccessful in my searches of CRAN. Can anyone provide a hint?

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

Hi List, Can someone help me to calculate the coordinates of the red and green points? In this example I found their approximate location by trying, but as I have to analyse many similar curves, I?d rather calculate the exact location. data<- c(0.008248005, 0.061242387, 0.099095516, 0.189943027, 0.227796157, 0.258078661, 0.280790538, 0.303502416, 0.386779301, 0.454914934, 0.545762445,

Hello, I am drawing contour lines for a function of 2 variables at one level of the value of the function and want to include a small arrow in any direction of increase of the function. Is there some way to do that? Below is an example that creates the contour lines. How do I add one small arrow on each line in the direction of increase of the function (at some central point of the contour

Hello folks, i'm a R beginner and i want to put in a same plot both contour lines and persp plot. For example, fn<-function(x,y){sin(x)+2*y} #this looks like a corrugated tin roof x<-seq(from=1,to=100,by=1) #generates a list of x values to sample y<-seq(from=1,to=100,by=1) #generates a list of y values to sample z<-outer(x,y,FUN=fn) #applies the funct. across the combos of x

Hello, I have data for contour plot which is given in polar coordinates. Is there a straightforward way to plot in polar coordinates in R, or do i need to fiddle with transformations and then to sort the x and y vectors to be in ascending order as required by contour function and relatives? Cheers, Todor

Hello folks, I am a beginner R user. I have been able to make a 3D surface plot using 'persp'. The surface is made by a grid of lines emanating perpendicularly from each of the x and y axes at regular intervals. I can get rid of that grid by setting 'border=NA'. Can anyone suggest some ways to replace the grid with contour lines, to create a 3-dimensional contour map? Thanks

Hello everybody, I search a function which returns the contour of map with levels like contourLines, but I would like this function return the border of the map too, because the function contourLines cannot consider the corner of the map and it is not adapted to fill polygon after that. Thanks in advance Pierre Bruyer

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

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

I'm trying to make a set of contour plots of bivariate kernel density estimates, showing three such plots overlaid, similar to this plot http://euclid.psych.yorku.ca/SCS/Private/Test/ridge-boot2.pdf except that I would like to have the contours *filled* (using transparent colors). To make this reproducible, I've saved the results of KernSmooth::bkde2D() in the following file:

Dear List, I have a data frame with approximately 500000 rows that looks like this: ?Date??? time??? value ? 19.07.1956????????? 12:00:00?????????????? 4.84 19.07.1956????????? 13:00:00?????????????? 4.85 19.07.1956????????? 14:00:00?????????????? 4.89 19.07.1956????????? 15:00:00?????????????? 4.94 19.07.1956????????? 16:00:00?????????????? 4.99 19.07.1956????????? 17:00:00?????????????? 5.01

Hello List! I asked this before (with no solution), but maybe this time... I'm trying to project a surface to the XY under a 3d cloud using lattice. I can project contour lines following the code for fig 13.7 in Deepayan Sarkar's "Lattice, Multivariate Data Visualization with R", but it fails when I try to "color them in" using panel.levelplot. ?utilities.3d says there

First time user, so sorry if I don't understand protocol.. Anyway, I have created a data frame consisting of pearson's R values at various x and y coordinates and then plotted this using filled.contour. My data is similar to fMRI data except that it is a surface map reconstructed from histological sections. I like the results but would like to know how contours were detected. Google search

Dear all, I have a question concerning the ks.test() function. I tryed to calculate the example given on the German wikipedia page. xi <- c(9.41,9.92,11.55,11.6,11.73,12,12.06,13.3) I get the right results when I calculate: ks.test(xi,pnorm,11,1) Now the question: shouldn't I obtain the same or a very similar result if I commpare the sample and a calculated sample from the distribution?
