Gnuplot 3d Scatter Plot
This tutorial covers how to do just that with some simple sample data.
Gnuplot 3d scatter plot. The number of mesh in the x and y directions can be specified by set dgrid3d x mesh y mash. Set title simple demo of scatter data conversion to grid data unset hidden3d set ticslevel 05 set view 6030 set autoscale set parametric set style data points set xlabel data style. In gnuplots case properly formatted means that the data is not arranged as sets of z values with their corresponding x and y values but as z values whose x and y values are indicated by their relative position the gnuplot documentation calls this grid format. Gnuplot version gnuplot 52 patchlevel 5.
Gnuplot version gnuplot 52 patchlevel rc2. I have a scattered data file composed of 7 columns and more than 8000 thousand lines i would like to plot the contour for this data. The default is on surface of the plot. I find it quite good and easy to use and that is what i use for my limited needs.

Gnuplot plot exampled lw 2 specify the line width gnuplot plot exampled lt 3 specify the line color must be done before linewidth gnuplot plot exampled pt 3 specify the point type gnuplot plot exampled ps 4 specify the point size gnuplot plot exampled dt 1 specify the dash type. The idea of 3d scatter plots is that you can compare 3 characteristics of a data set instead of two.

Height of each mesh is determined automatically by a weighted average of the data inside the grid.
An example taken from the vignette to produce a basic plot. Gg3d is a package created to extend ggplot2 to produce 3d plots. In order to generate a 3 dim. The option takes three positions which are bottom surface and top.
The columns i would like to plot are the first one the second one and the last seventh one giving a 2d and 3d plot as follows. It adds a third axis to a ggplot. Grid graph from those data use set dgrid3d. It does exactly what you are asking for.
