XYZ Chart

XYZ Chart Example

The XYZ Chart can be used to plot three-dimensional (or higher dimensional) datasets. 3D plots are useful for a number of applications including geographic plotting, multivariate analysis, and more.

Controls

The XYZ Chart includes typical 3D camera controls so that data can panned, zoomed, and rotated. This allows for straightforward analysis from various perspectives.

Beta

This plugin is currently in beta. Many changes are expected so please pay attention to new versions being released.

Implementation

The chart is built with Three.js via the excellent React 3 Fiber and React 3 Drei. The chart implements a (very) small 3D chart rendering library. We hope to extend this with more chart types in the future.

Installing XYZ Chart on Grafana Cloud:

For more information, visit the docs on plugin installation.

Installing on a local Grafana:

For local instances, plugins are installed and updated via a simple CLI command. Plugins are not updated automatically, however you will be notified when updates are available right within your Grafana.

1. Install the Panel

Use the grafana-cli tool to install XYZ Chart from the commandline:

grafana-cli plugins install 

The plugin will be installed into your grafana plugins directory; the default is /var/lib/grafana/plugins. More information on the cli tool.

2. Add the Panel to a Dashboard

Installed panels are available immediately in the Dashboards section in your Grafana main menu, and can be added like any other core panel in Grafana.

To see a list of installed panels, click the Plugins item in the main menu. Both core panels and installed panels will appear.
