Precipitation plot for a specific time

Hello,

i want to generate a plot like the one atatched, and it must be for a specific time for all latitudes. say time t=1:00 or 6:30 but for all latitudes.

thank you in advance

What is your data?

If you want it for all latitudes at a given time, then you have to fix one longitude. You can extract at a given time, at a fixed lontitude for all the latitudes.

EXample:

[X,Y,Z] = peaks(50) ;
x = X(1,:) ; 
y = Y(:,1) ; 
% get plot for all y's and at x = 0 ;
yi = y ; 
xi = repmat(0,size(yi)) ;
zi = interp2(X,Y,Z,xi,yi) ;  % you can use knnsearch too 

figure
plot(yi,zi)    % curve plot 

figure
% plot the curve on the surf 
surf(X,Y,Z)
hold on
plot3(xi,yi,zi,'k','linewidth',5)

Great! You just understood the problem. I want to plot data for all latitudes and for a specific time and longitude. The above code though is confusing me. Where's the selection done? Data has latitude, longitude time and data contents. Thank you again

X is Longutude and Y is latitude....as you said your time is fixed..Z is the data at that point. Whats is confusing?

Time, latitude, longitude and precipitation are all stored in a data.txt file and I have to plot precipitation for all latitudes at time=10:00 and longitude=20 I want to do the extraction based on this information Thanks

This not a deal. you need to arrange your data. Attach your data.

Thank you so much! you made may day :)
