Directional (version 6.1)

Contour plot (on the sphere) of the SESPC distribution: Contour plot (on the sphere) of the SESPC distribution

Description

The contour plot (on the sphere) of the SESPC distribution is produced.

Usage

spher.sespc.contour(mu, theta, bgcol = "snow", dat = NULL, col = NULL,
lat = 50, long = 50)

Value

A plot containing the contours of the distribution.

Arguments

mu

The mean vector the SESPC distribution, a vector in $R^3$.

theta

The two $\theta$ parameters of the SESPC distribution.

bgcol

The color of the surface of the sphere.

dat

If you have you want to plot supply them here. This has to be a numerical matrix with three columns, i.e. unit vectors.

col

If you supplied data then choose the color of the points. If you did not choose a color, the points will appear in red.

lat

A positive number determing the range of degrees to move left and right from the latitude center. See the example to better understand this argument.

long

A positive number determing the range of degrees to move up and down from the longitude center. See the example to better understand this argument.
