I am trying to plot some HDF data in matplotlib. After importing them using h5py, the data is stored in a form of array, like this:
array([[151, 176, 178],
[121, 137, 130],
[120, 125, 126])
In this case, x and y values are just the indexes of the array's fields, while z value is the value of specific field. In the (x,y,z) form it would look like:
(1,1,151)
(2,1,176)
(3,1,178)
(1,2,121)
...
and so on.
Is there an easy way to do a surface plot from this kind of data? I know I can change this to (x,y,z) tuples by iterating all over the array, but maybe it is not needed?
