Hello All.
I am using polar.plot from the {plotrix} library to visualize individual
coral colonies, dying, growing, etc through time. These coral colonies, that
I visit annually happen to be delineated by a circular plot underwater;
hence polar.plot is the best way to visualize my data. (I.e. This is not
cyclical data that I am plotting.) I am trying to label individual data
points (which correspond to actual coral colonies) with their identifying
tag numbers. I have searched and searched and found no polar.plot with text
labels on data points.
I tried to coerce the "text" function (code below). But no dice.
D = runif(29,0,7) #Distance from center of circular plot (in
meters)
H = runif(29,0,360) #Compass heading to center of circular plot (in
degrees)
polar.plot(D, H,rp.type = "dots", start = 90, point.col = "red")
TagID = 200:228 #Labels of individual coral colonies
text(D,H,TagID) #lame attempt at coercing the text function
Is it possible to add text labels to data points in polar.plot?
Any assistance will help save an endangered species. (Really!)
Thank you!
