Filled contours#

Axes3D.contourf differs from Axes3D.contour in that it creates filled contours, i.e. a discrete number of colours are used to shade the domain.

This is like a Axes.contourf plot in 2D except that the shaded region corresponding to the level c is graphed on the plane z=c.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

from matplotlib import cm
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import axes3d

ax = plt.figure().add_subplot(projection='3d')
X, Y, Z = axes3d.get_test_data(0.05)
ax.contourf(X, Y, Z, cmap=cm.coolwarm)

plt.show()
