Abstract
PyRT (pronounced pirate) is a raytracer/image generator for Python 3.5 and higher. This project is mainly done with the following in mind: * ray tracing in the Jupyter notebook * Teaching computer graphics and ray tracing * Exploring ray tracing concepts for geo data using Python. * Rendering geo data, including large point clouds. * Implementing new algorithms for rendering large 3D city models. * Creating 3D-Maps from OpenStreetMap data * Server-side rendering / cloud based rendering In this talk I will present the project and show some examples. I will show how useful it is to create quick 2D animations, such as visualization of different sorting algorithms and I how to create fractals and other graphics. A certain focus is also on geodata therefore I will show how to create a live EarthQuake map using pyRT. In the last part I will show to use pyRT to create 3D renderings.
