Hello Martin,

Did you try with 'polar.plot' from the 'plotrix' package?

Best Regards,
Pascal

Objet : [R] Rose plot (like a windrose)

Dear R Gurus,
I spent some time in looking for help but didn't find a way to do what I
want. 
I do have a vector (in Degrees) containing of 360 elements, one element per
degree on a circle.
The data is dimensionless  and in the range of -0.2 to 0.5. 

An Example:

Wind Dir [degrees],  Value
1,  0.1
2 , 0.3
3 ,  0.01
.,.
.,.
180,-0.01 
181,-0.2
.,.
.,.
.,.
359,.0.3
360,.0.5

Now I want to have some kind of "rose" plot, a bit like a wind rose. 
Where the actual values per degree are plottet on a circle.
I had a look to some wind rose packages, but the problem I had was that I
wasn't able to plot the values but the plots gave me frequencies (which is
due to the data (one element per degree) always "one" ).
Do you have any idea how to make these plots?

Thanks a lot in advance

Martin
