===================
3D box surface plot
===================

Given data on a gridded volume ``X``, ``Y``, ``Z``, this example plots the
data values on the volume surfaces.

The strategy is to select the data from each surface and plot
contours separately using `.axes3d.Axes3D.contourf` with appropriate
parameters *zdir* and *offset*.
