vegan3d is an R package of 3D plotting routines split apart from vegan. It can be used for dynamic plots based on rgl package, and for static 3D plots based on scatterplot3d package.
The package contains the following functions:
orditkplot
: a Tcl/Tk-based 2D editable plot.
Function opens a graphic window where labels can be moved with mouse,
but points are fixed. It is also possible to edit labels and zoom into
graph, and the final plot can be saved in various graphic formats or
saved as an R object that can be further manipulated or
plotted with standard R graphics commands.
ordirgl
with its support functions
orglpoints
, orgltext
,
orglsegments
, orglellipse
,
orglspider
, orglcluster
and
orglspantree
. These require rgl package
and provide dynamic ordination graphics.
rgl based support functions
rgl.isomap
to display isomap
results, and
rgl.renyiaccum
to display renyiaccum
results.
ordiplot3d
(based on scatterplot3d)
and ordilattice3d
(based on lattice) for
static 3D ordination diagrams.
orditree3d
and ordirgltree
functions to
display a coloured dendrogram tree over a 2D plane. The first is a
static function based on scatterplot3d and the latter a
dynamic spinnable plot based on rgl. The method was
initially designed for showing dendrograms over ordination plane but it
can use other planes, for instance a map of locations of
points.
