Plotting map data

Hello,

I have a text file containing 3 columns of data: Longitude, Latitude and the
their corresponding value.
There are missing coordinate values but they are no included in the list. I want
to be able to plot the data showing the gaps. If I do contour_map then
everything gets filled in. It seems that the only way I can get around this is
to manually put in the coordinates that have a missing value and assign a
_FillValue attribute.

Is there another way in NCL that I can plot the data on a map without having to
include the missing values and just plot the coordinates that are listed?

sample of my text file:
