Surface Plot

Surface Plots are used to identify trends and outliers within numeric surfaces.


The Surface is made up of a series of points where each point has:

  • X Position
  • Y Position
  • Color (which represents the Z-Axis)

The Surface Plot can support data sets where the X and Y positions can both be regular and irregular in their distribution.


Additionally, the color scale can be continuous or stepped to show a surface gradient.
