I think the disjointedness is the problem. There are many values where there is no adjacent value in one direction of another and so no tessellation can be formed. If you look at the image result and note the places where there are "solid values" in both x and y directions I think the overall patterns match up. The image result is more faithful to the data. > > The grid-extraction that I uploaded contains 40x20 cells. if its a bigger > grid with 7million cells, does it still work the same way or can the vectors > only be a maximum of 100 cells? Might be a performance problem although I don't think it is theoretically impossible. An 8000 x 8000 matrix consumed my full CPU resources and essentially locked up my session. I'm in the process of deciding when to halt it. Are you aware that there are far more knowledgeable persons than I that hang out at the R-SIG-Geo list? -- David > > Thank you for your help > jas > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/3D-plots-of-2D-grids-tp4658517p4658639.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
