similar to: Polar coordinates - contour plots

Hello, I have 2d data where x coordinate is not given in usual ascending order (x1,...,x1+l; l>0), and instead in another, regular, but not ascending or descending order (for illustration: x1,-x1,x1+dx1,-x1-dx1,....).y is an array which corresponds to the way x is ordered. I have noticed that giving 'plot(x,y,type='l') produces a plot where the points are connected in a completely

Hi, I'd like to plot in in polar coordinates a line which is given as a vector of lengths and angles. library("plotrix")

Dear all: I'm enjoying using rgl and I want to set a specific viewpoint. I understand that view3d() will do so by setting the 3d polar coordinate angles, theta and phi. In standard polar coordinates, theta is the angle away from the X axis in the X-Y plane and phi (inclination angle) is the angle between the Z axis and the radius vector It appears that when you use view3d() theta is

Hello, If I want to apply some f(x) to such chunks of the the array dim(A)==c(d1,d2,d3,..,dk,...,dn) which are defined by A[...,ik,...] (ik belongs to {1,..,dk}), for now I use iteration via 'for (i in dim(A)[k]) f(A[...,k,...])' . Is there any more elegant approach, e.g like in 'apply' function which you can use on margin of the array. Just in my case I want the entire slice

Greetings to you all. I have two datasets - Time and magnitude. For a particular location, the magnitude of the parameter varies with time. I wish to obtain a polar coordinate distribution of time (0-24h) and magnitudes so as to visualize how magnitude varies with different times of the day (e.g., morning, midnight hours). I have searched for "polar coordinates in R" but could not get

Hi, Two questions: 1 - Say I have average speed and directions for tide and I would like to plot them on a polar plot, but with different colors so I can indicate the two directions. I'm using polar.plot from the plotrix library. How can I add a second "b" and "dir.b" series to a polar.plot? library(plotrix) a = 3 dir.a = 85 b = 4 dir.b = 250 polar.plot(a, dir.a, start =

Hi, I just updated to R-2.1.1 and updated packages acordingly However, after the update, routines that use polar.plot did not function as correctly. In plotrix 1.3.3 the polar.plot function does scale label.pos to radians prior to calling radial.plot Hence, the command polar.plot(c(5,10,5,0),c(-10,0,10,20),rp.type='P',

I am trying to draw a polar plot, which is easy enough to do in the plotrix package through the polar.plot function. However I would like to change the origin of the length vector. For instance all my length values are between 75 and 85, so instead of having the origin as 0 (the default) I'd like it to be, say, 50. Is there any way do to this in the polar.plot function, or if not is there an

I'd like to create a polar plot similar to those created by the polarFreq function in the openair package. However, this package seems to be specific to wind speed and direction, and requires a "ws" (wind speed) and a "wd" (wind direction) column. My data is unrelated to wind speed, but I'd like to be able to get a plot that does what polarFreq's plots do; I'd

Dear R users, The following issue has been already documented, but, if I am not mistaken, not yet solved. This issue appears while trying to plot arrows with "geom_segment" (package ggplot2), with polar coordinates ("coord_polar"). The direction of some arrows is wrong (red rectangle). Please find herewith an example. Does someone know how to deal with that issue? Best

Hello, I am using the polar.plot function from plotrix. Is there a way to change the width of the grid lines? grid.lwd doesn't work....

I read this story and thought of Allison's prompt to "try not to think about blue eyed polar bears". Will she be banned from foreign travel now? Steve Prior -- snip -- WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Polar bears, sea ice and global warming are taboo subjects, at least in public, for some U.S. scientists attending meetings abroad, environmental groups and a top federal wildlife official

Hi Folks, Here is my attempt at a simple polar plot. > pos <- seq(0,360,by=5) > tspk <- rep(c(1,0,1),c(13,47,13)) > require(plotrix) > polar.plot(tspk,pos,rp.type="s",point.symbols=17,point.col="green4") I only see half the symbols, the other half of each symbol is hidden under the circular grid. In fact if I change rp.type="r", I see the

Hello all- I would like to orient my polar.plot (from package plotrix) so that the circular scale runs clockwise and the origin (ie. 0 degrees) starts at the top of the plot. The defaults of running the scale counter-clockwise and beginning with 90 degrees at the top of the graph seems counter-intuitive to me. I'm using R 2.5.0, and plotrix version 2.2-4. Many thanks, Tim

I have been trying to visualize times of lowest tides, month by month. I have tide predictions with times either in unix time or a text format, and heights in feet or meters. I had been able to derive the clock times of each prediction. I would now like to graph this data with points showing heights as "r" and times as "theta", from 0000 to 2355. There is a seasonal

First a bit of background: After doing a search for a flexible polar plot function and coming up empty, I have begun writing one myself. Since I am new to writing mid-level graphics routines, this has required some learning about lattice, grid and related things. I am to the point where I have a workable proof of concept, but still need to make some improvements. My goal is to have

Hello, I wanted to find out more about square polar mapping, cause that whole stuff is a bit tricky - to me - and not so easy to understand. Searching the web did't get me any results, so I wonder what the background of square polar mapping is. Is it derived from some mathematical publications or just the result of a brilliant intuition of a Vorbis programmer ? ;) Thanks. Stoffke

Hi, I would like to do a polar graph (=star graph) ! is that graph existing on R? Because more softwares can do that but I don't found it on R! Thanks Sabine --------------------------------- ils, photos et vidéos ! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, Following the link below ( http://rgm2.lab.nig.ac.jp/RGM2/func.php?rd_id=plotrix:clock24.plot) I got an interesting polar plots which displayed my data and the time of observation. Thank you very much for providing such details. However, I have two set of data which I wish to display in the same polar plot. I tried using points to add the second data but could not succeed. That is,

Hi, I try to compute circular means for a matrix with NAs, but the function "circ.mean" return only means for lines with complete values and do not accept "na.omit=T" or "na.rm=T", or "na.action=na.omit", or "na.fail=T". Also, I try to use "polar.plot" of the package poltrix with the same matrix, but angles are not display because of
