3D Scatter plots
----------------

The :meth:`pygmt.Figure.plot3d` method can be used to plot symbols in 3D.
In the example below, we show how the
`Iris flower dataset <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_flower_data_set/>`__
can be visualized using a perspective 3-dimensional plot. The ``region``
argument has to include the :math:`x`, :math:`y`, :math:`z` axis limits in the
form of (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, zmin, zmax), which can be done automatically
using :meth:`pygmt.info`. To include the z-axis stick, set ``frame`` as a
minimum to something like ``frame=["WsNeZ", "zaf"]``. Use ``perspective`` to
control the azimuth and elevation angle of the view, and ``zscale`` to adjust
the vertical exaggeration factor.
