Surface Maps

Surface maps display XYZ data in a smooth color filled surface. Surface maps use color and shading to emphasis changes in data.

 

Rotate the surface map to any desired angle.

Add 3D line/scatter plots. For example, this 3D surface map displays
an open pit with drill holes penetrating to the bedrock below.

Surface Map Features

  • Display functions, grids, or data as a surface map.
  • Display any fill color spectrum for your surface.
  • Add a color scale bar legend to explain the data values corresponding to each color.
  • Specify surface color gradation, shininess, base fill and line color.
  • Overlay contour maps, surface maps, and other 3D maps to more fully show your data.
  • Control mesh line frequency, color, style, surface offset.
  • Set lighting horizontal and vertical angles, ambient, diffuse, and specular properties.
  • Choose overlay resample method and resolution, color modulation (blending) of surface and overlays.
  • Grid data directly in Grapher using Inverse Distance to a Power.
  • Rotate the map to any desired angle.
