I have 3 lists of 17 values each, x, y, and z. I want to create a 3d surface plot in R.

I found a lot of different explanations on how to do that, but somehow all speak about extrapolation, or drawing data from more data.

All I want is:

scatterplot3d(mean_reported,cent.close,effectsize)

with a surface connecting the points.

Is there an easy way doing this? Thank you.

    The thread covers something different from this: they want to a countour map to be the projection on the plane beneath the 3D surface plot. Moreover, the thread uses syntax I don't get: why is the z value a matrix [1:87,1:67], while x and y aren't [1:67]? Also, the used package doesn't seem to provide a similar layout compared to the scatterplot3d (e.g., axes). – Torvon Jun 05 '15 at 15:48
