Polar Intensity Plot

[sandy]

HI..
I want to make polar plot like view of the signal intensity data of laser radar. Each linear profile contains say 2000 data points in a fixed angular direction. Range is then 2000 and height is each data points* sin(angle value). Like this , I have say 1000 profiles, starting from an angle 0 to 30 degree. I
I want to plot the scanning data as the attached picture. X axis is Height from the ground, Y axis is the Distance from the Instrument and Z is the value of the reflected signal.
Hope I could clearly describe my problem.
Regards
Sandy

I don't know a ready to run example for that but you may modify the standard polar plot control from LabVIEW that is leveraging the picture control. The Polar Plot.vi contains plot attributes like grid color and plot color. You should modify this vi to be able change the color of each data point depending of the Z-value.
