Thanks a lot for the reply.After looking at different parts of the code today I was able to start with simple 2D polar plots as the attached pdf file. In case the attachment is not visible I used the plot.polar function to create something like that.https://vijaybarve.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/polarplot-05.png Now the idea now will be to put three of those (for X,Y,Z) in a 3d rotatable plane. I tried the rgl function but is not clear how I can use directly polar coordinates to draw the points at the three different planes. Any ideas on that?
You can't easily do what you're trying to do. You have 6 coordinates to display: the 3 angles and values corresponding to each of them. You need to suppress something.
If the values for matching angles correspond to each other (e.g. x=23 degrees and y=23 degrees and z=23 degrees all correspond to the same observation), then I'd suggest suppressing the angles. Just do a scatterplot of the 3 corresponding values. It might make sense to join them (to make a path as the angles change), and perhaps to colour the path to indicate the angle (or plot text along the path to show it).

So each one is having 360 elements each one correpsonding to angular coordinates (1 degree, 2 degrees, 3 degrees,.... 360 degrees) and I want to plot those on the xyz axes that have degress. Is there a function or library to look at R cran? The ideal will be that after plotting I will be able to rotate the shape.
