How to plot a 3D data whose axis are not the same shape?

Solution 1:

You need to reshape your data to expand x and y to match z.

Using pure python:

from itertools import product
a,b,c = zip(*(e for x,y,z in zip(*data) for e in product([x],[y],z)))

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(projection='3d')

ax.scatter3D(a, b, c, c=c, cmap='Greens');

Using numpy:

import numpy as np
x, y = np.repeat(np.array(data[:2]), 3, axis=1)
z = data[2]

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(projection='3d')
ax.scatter3D(x, y, z, c=z, cmap='Greens')

output:
