griddata and polar plots - grid

I am using matplotlib to fit some data to a grid and plot it as a polar projection. Something like in the example below. However, I want it to be smooth where the edges of the plot meet at 0/360 degrees. Anyone know how I do this??
from pylab import *
import random
x = linspace(0, 360, 361).astype(int)
x = x*pi/180
y = linspace(0.05, 0.5, 800)
xgrid, ygrid = meshgrid(x, y)
baz = []
for c in range(2000): baz.append(random.randint(0,360))
freq = rand(len(baz))
pwr = rand(len(baz))
zgrid = griddata(baz,freq,pwr, xgrid, ygrid)
subplot(111, polar=True)
pcolormesh(xgrid, ygrid, zgrid)
show()
Also the data I am working with has a gap due to the mask created by griddata (I use griddata as above but then sum many grids in a loop). I would like to fill the missing segment (see attached fig), does anyone know how to do this?
thanks
Dave

If you know which grids come together at the 0/360 degree position you could just concatenate them and do a spline interpolation on it (scipy interpolation).
For your second problem I am not sure but how about creating your grids in polar coordinates? Would this solve your problem?
Kind regards

How to get the best polygon point pattern data in spatstat analysis in R

I have a dataset of spatial locations data. I want to do a point pattern analysis using the spatstat package in R using this data. I want the best polygon area for the analysis instead of the rectangle area. The code I have is
original_data = read.csv("/home/hudamoh/PhD_Project_Moh_Huda/Dataset_files/my_coordinates.csv")
plot(original_data$row, original_data$col)
which results in a plot that looks like this
Setting the data for point pattern data
point_pattern_data = ppp(original_data$row, original_data$col, c(0, 77), c(0, 116))
plot(point_pattern_data)
summary(point_pattern_data)
resulting in a plot that looks like this
#The observed data has considerably wide white spaces, which I want to remove for a better analysis area. Therefore, I want to make the point pattern a polygon instead of a rectangle. The vertices for the polygon are the pairs of (x,y) below to avoid white space as much as possible.
x = c(3,1,1,0.5,0.5,1,2,2.5,5.5, 16,21,28,26,72,74,76,75,74,63,58,52,47,40)
y = c(116,106,82.5,64,40,35,25,17.5,5,5,5,10,8,116,100,50,30,24,17,10,15,15,8)
I find these vertices above manually by considering the plot below (with the grid lines)
plot(original_data$row,original_data$col)
grid(nx = 40, ny = 25,
lty = 2, # Grid line type
col = "gray", # Grid line color
lwd = 2) # Grid line width
So I want to make the point pattern polygon. The code is
my_data_poly = owin(poly = list(x = c(3,1,1,0.5,0.5,1,2,2.5,5.5, 16,21,28,26,72,74,76,75,74,63,58,52,47,40), y = c(116,106,82.5,64,40,35,25,17.5,5,5,5,10,8,116,100,50,30,24,17,10,15,15,8)))
plot(my_data_poly)
but it results in an error. The error is
I fix it by
my_data_poly = owin(poly = list(x = c(116,106,82.5,64,40,35,25,17.5,5,5,5,10,8,116,100,50,30,24,17,10,15,15,8), y = c(3,1,1,0.5,0.5,1,2,2.5,5.5, 16,21,28,26,72,74,76,75,74,63,58,52,47,40)))
plot(my_data_poly)
It results in a plot
However, this is not what I want. How to get the observed area as a polygon in point pattern data analysis?
This should be a reasonable solution to the problem.
require(sp)
poly = Polygon(
cbind(original_data$col,
original_data$row)
))
This will create a polygon from your points. You can use this document to understand the sp package better
We don’t have access to the point data you read in from file, but if you just want to fix the polygonal window that is not a problem.
You need to traverse the vertices of your polygon sequentially and anti-clockwise.
The code connects the first point you give to the next etc. Your vertices are:
library(spatstat)
x = c(3,1,1,0.5,0.5,1,2,2.5,5.5, 16,21,28,26,72,74,76,75,74,63,58,52,47,40)
y = c(116,106,82.5,64,40,35,25,17.5,5,5,5,10,8,116,100,50,30,24,17,10,15,15,8)
vert <- ppp(x, y, window = owin(c(0,80),c(0,120)))
plot.ppp(vert, main = "", show.window = FALSE, chars = NA)
text(vert)
Point number 13 is towards the bottom left and 14 in the top right, which gives the funny crossing in the polygon.
Moving the order around seems to help:
xnew <- c(x[1:11], x[13:12], x[23:14])
ynew <- c(y[1:11], y[13:12], y[23:14])
p <- owin(poly = cbind(xnew, ynew))
plot(p, main = "")
It is unclear from your provided plot of the data that you really should apply point pattern analysis.
The main assumption underlying point process modelling as implemented in spatstat
is that the locations of events (points) are random and the process that
generated the random locations is of interest.
Your points seem to be on a grid and maybe you need another tool for your analysis.
Of course spatstat has a lot of functionality for simply handling and summarising data like this so you may still find useful tools in there.

How to plot data over a non-rectangular region in Octave?

I have three arrays of equal size: x, y, z. I want to plot z over x, y. Problems is, those x and y do not represent a rectangular region, such as what would be in case of using meshgrid function.
I know I can use something like scatter, but that would graphically only give me the points themselves. What I want is the filled, smoothed picture. So as opposed to this created by scatter:
I would like something like this:
Any suggestion how this can be done? I have a feeling the data must be smoothed out somehow via interpolation or something else prior to plotting which itself should be simple.
You can use griddata() to interpolate your x,y data on a regular grid and then you can use imagesc() to plot the result.
Here is a minimal example with a basic circle:
% INPUT
x = cos(0:0.1:2*pi);
y = sin(0:0.1:2*pi);
z = (0:0.1:2*pi);
% Create a regular grid that have the same boundary as your x,y data
[xx,yy] = meshgrid(linspace(-1,1,100),linspace(-1,1,100));
% Grid interpolation
zz = griddata (x, y, z, xx, yy);
% Plot
imagesc(zz)
colormap ([jet(); 1 1 1]); % I add a last [1 1 1] triplet to set the NaN color to white.
Noticed that this will only works if you keep the default interpolation method (which is a linear interpolation). The other method (cubic and nearest) will extend the domain of definition by analytic continuation.
I realized that the best approach would be some slight modification to what obchardon is proposing:
instead of the lines
imagesc(zz)
colormap ([jet(); 1 1 1]);
do this:
surf(xx, yy, zz);
shading interp;
colormap("jet");
This eliminates the problem with the black background. Then all it takes is just to rotate the camera with a mouse so that the 3d surface looked like 2d from above.

How to rotate a plotted igraph, given a specific layout (r code)?

I have the following code:
require(igraph)
g = make_star(8, mode="undirected", center=1)
layout.old = layout_with_fr(g, dim=3)
plot(g, layout = layout.old)
I'd like to plot the same graph but with a rotation of degree a for any a w.r.t. the original layout, w.r.t. a fixed axis, no matter what it is. The idea is to construct a step-wise animation, so I need to plot a new graph (using the function 'plot') for each step (each step gives the same graph, but rotated).
How to do that?
Thanks so much in advance!
You can do it using the rgl::rotate3d function. For example to rotate
by 10, 20, ..., 100 degrees about the axis in direction (x,y,z) = (1,1,1) use
for (a in 10*(1:10)) {
plot(g, layout = rgl::rotate3d(layout.old, a*pi/180, x=1,y=1,z=1))
Sys.sleep(1)
}
You could also use rglplot(g, layout = layout.old) for an interactive plot.

Creating a hexplot

I am trying to create a figure like the one depicted in the third column of the following image:
Link for the image in case of backup.
Basically I have x and y positions of 200 particles and I have the MSD data for these 200 positions. I'd like MSD to be the value that should determine a color map for the particles in coordinates (x,y). So MSD should be like the height, or the z position corresponding to each particle in (x,y).
I am surprised at my incompetence, because I have been trying to solve this problem for the last couple of days but none of the Google searches gave me any result. The closest thing that I have found is the concept of "self-organizing map" in Matlab and R, but I do not know how to use R and Matlab's toolbox for SOM was utterly useful for my needs.
I tried the following code in Matlab and get the attached plot as a result:
clear all; close all; clc;
x = (dlmread('xdata.dat'))'; % x is 1x200 array
y = (dlmread('ydata.dat'))'; % y is 1x200 array
msd = (dlmread('msd_field.txt'))'; % msd is 1x200 array
[X,Y] = meshgrid(x,y);
Z = meshgrid(msd);
z = [X; Y; Z];
surf(z)
But I think this plot is not useful at all. What I want is a 2D scatter plot of (x,y) depicting particle positions and on top of that color code this scatter plot with the values stored in msd like the plot I showed in the beginning. How can I create this through Matlab, or any other visualization tool? Thank you in advance.
It is not clear whay you want to have. Here a scatter plot using ggplot2.
## some reproducible data
set.seed(1)
dat <- data.frame(
x = round(runif(200,-30,30),2),
y = round(runif(200,-2,30),2),
msd = sample(c(0,2,3),200,rep=T))
## scatter plot where the size/color of points depends in msd
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(dat) +
geom_point(aes(x,y,size=msd,color=msd)) +
theme_bw()

Plotting 3D maps with RGL

I'm trying to plot flat maps in RGL's 3d environment because it should enable maps to be custom zoomed/tilted for a projection that best suits both the data and required output image aspect. This thread describes the process for plotting images using rgl.surface(). But its not clear if this method is adaptable for OSM/other map objects. Very grateful for any ideas you may have.
This is the starting point, which fails because Error in is.matrix(z) : 'z' is missing. Any idea how I can insert some zeros for z coordinates?
require(rgl)
open3d() # R crashes if this is done later(?)
#Sys.setenv(NOAWT=1) # fix an {OSM} X11 issue in Mac
require(OpenStreetMap)
require(ggplot2)
lat <- c(53, 50); lon <- c(-5, 1)
map <- openmap(c(lat[1],lon[1]),c(lat[2],lon[2]), 5, 'osm')
map <- openproj(map)
rgl.surface(map)
You need to create a matrix of zeroes for heights and use the col= argument to surface3d to set the colour of the image.
Getting all the dimensions and ordering and all that out of the map object is a faff, so here's a function to do it:
map3d <- function(map,...){
if(length(map$tiles)!=1){
stop("multiple tiles not implemented")
}
nx = map$tiles[[1]]$xres
ny = map$tiles[[1]]$yres
xmin = map$tiles[[1]]$bbox$p1[1]
xmax = map$tiles[[1]]$bbox$p2[1]
ymin = map$tiles[[1]]$bbox$p1[2]
ymax = map$tiles[[1]]$bbox$p2[2]
xc = seq(xmin,xmax,len=ny)
yc = seq(ymin,ymax,len=nx)
colours = matrix(map$tiles[[1]]$colorData,ny,nx)
m = matrix(0,ny,nx)
surface3d(xc,yc,m,col=colours,...)
}
Which gives us:
Now, note it only works if there's one tile in the returned map, but the principle is there.
Also, I'm not totally convinced the coordinate alignment is exact. The coordinates may be centre of pixels or edges of the image, so maybe there's a +1 missing somewhere. And I'm not sure if it applies to the gray border or not.
