Hi R Users,
Is it possible to visualize river flow in  3D (latitude, longitude with
respect to depth)?
The example of my data looks like. Any suggestions?

dat1
    long lat depth flow
1 1015.9 857  1.00 1.50
2 1015.9 857  1.25 1.23
3 1015.9 857  0.50 2.00
4 1015.9 858  0.10 1.95
5 1015.9 858  0.20 1.50
6 1025.0 858  0.30 1.20
7 1025.0 858  0.40 0.50
8 1025.0 858  0.35 0.70
9 1025.0 858  0.24 1.20

Thanks for your help.

It may be, but it's hard to give a nice looking graphic of that small dataset. You could try the rgl package and use plot3d to show spheres with radius depending on the flow rate, for example

plot3d(cbind(long, lat, depth), type="s", col="blue", radius=flow/5)
