Fitted quadratic surface
The Cloud chart is essentially a scatter-plot in 3 dimensions (maybe you are running an experiment in which you vary pressure and temperature, and are interested in the yield of the result). Rather than fitting a line to show the relationship between input and output, you fit a plane (if the data is linear in both x and y) or a curved surface.
The model in this case is quadratic in the X-direction and linear in Y to give the simple folded surface shown. The order of fit may be up to 4 (quartic) in either direction.
Note that the equation has been used to create a legend for the chart, using a supplied format string.
SharpPlot sp = new SharpPlot();

sp.HeadingStyle = HeadingStyles.Right;
zdata = new int[] {12,65,77,117,9,112};

ydata = new int[] {190,270,310,300,190,230};
sp.SetZTickMarks(50);
