[R] Smoothing a persp graph

[David L Carlson]

kde2d is for two dimensional data. The persp graph is 3d.
 
Look at the StatDA package, particularly the Vignette for that package,
"Tutorial to the package StatDA" which discusses smoothing techniques
and kriging:

For more options look at the Spatial Task View:
