how to create a 3 dimensional circle window in spat stat?

Question

I am struggling to create a 3d disc window for the pp3 in spatatat. the shape of the window is similar to a petri dish: a radius of 5cm and the wall is 3 cm high. i managed to create a 3d box, but i cant figure how to do it for a circle. is it possible to do? does spatstat know how to analyze point pattern in a 3d circle?

thanks in advance for your help

Answer 1

Spatstat han only handle boxes in 3d and higher dimensions.

Answer 2

You mean a cylinder.

Currently spatstat only supports rectangular box regions (in 3D and higher dimensions).

I will take this as a feature request. Do you have data that you could share with us?
