Create a Radially symetrical array

Hello
I have a 2D matrix with values at distances along and away from a central point the data is uniformly spaced. This data is radially symmetrical about the Y axis.
I would like to find a method of producing a 3D matrix of the data that retains the radially symmetrical nature of the data.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Best regards
Tom

How can it be radially symmetric about only the Y axis? I can see that on the negative side of the Y axis (the half-plane with negative X values), the values are the same as on the positive side of the Y axis (the half-plane with pisitive X values), but that's not radially symmetric - that's just symmetric about the Y axis. If the data looks like circles, it would have to be symmetric about both the Y and x axes. Can you supply a sample of your data?
Yes you are right it is not radially symetrical, i wasnt really sure how to phrase it. here is a sample of the data
Y 0 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 X 1 0.715 0.848 0.812 0.68 0.542 0.75 2.0275 2.149 1.506 1.017 0.714 0.5 3.34 3.45 2.2 1.354 0.886 0.25 192500 9.5 3.255 1.6565 0.9995 0 385000 15.55 4.31 1.959 1.113 -0.25 192500 9.5 3.255 1.658 0.999 -0.5 2.31 3.45 2.2 1.357 0.885 -0.75 1.429 2.15 1.5075 1.0195 0.714 -1 0.548 0.85 0.815 0.682 0.543
This may not fromat correctly so i may need to find antoher way of uploading it
Sorry that didn't come out correctly, here is a link to a print screen of the data,
the data exists for negative y values also (these are symmetrical to those shown here). So basically i want to be able to use this data like a spoke to generate a 3d matrix
