I asked @tylermorganwall to try to reproduce the @washingtonpost 3D visualizations in R using the same flight data we used with #rayshader and #rayrender and boy did he deliver washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/… ImageImage
@tylermorganwall The DC building models were from openstreetmaps! And then he went and put us in the helicopter's point of view from that night going through Chinatown, passing the Portrait Museum and ending up in Judiciary Square. It reminded me of the trench run in A New Hope.
@tylermorganwall okay, i had to give it a soundtrack

Here is a selection of the *coolest* 3D maps and map-like worlds I've seen on Twitter in the past months. Wonderful dynamic, interactive, static, creative or artistic visuals. #Dataviz #3dMap #GIS #3D #Cartography #GISchat 1/23🧵⬇️
Thomas Kole | @ThomasKoleTA 's stunning realistic 3D model of Tenochtitlan capital of the Aztec Empire (now Mexico City) made in #blender using #geometrynodes. Stunning water, clouds & details. #b3d #CDMX 2/23 🧵
Craig Taylor | @CraigTaylorViz 's mesmerizing ship data animation of the Gulf of Mexico. Made in #Cinema4D, with pleasant colours and satisfyingly well-made animation and light reflections. As always impressive work. 3/23 #3dmaps

1/6‼️New #rayrender update (v0.25.0)! This update brings `render_ao()`, a function that renders scenes using ambient occlusion. AO is useful when you want to represent a 3D scene but don't want harsh shadows.

Here's the JWST (@NASAWebb) Telescope, rendered with AO in #RStats:
2/6 You can either render w/ pure AO (B&W), or keep the diffuse colors in the model. Keeping colors allows you to highlight certain parts of your scene.

This technique is widely used: check out this NYT article on the Tulsa Race massacre.

3/6 Why add AO? It's super useful and widely used in journalism! Once you start looking, you see it everywhere.

3D maps can look complex & difficult to make…
Here are 12 humans who proved to me that 3D is not out of reach:
Different tools, many styles... all fantastic: 1/14🧵 #dataviz #3dmaps #gis
Graig Taylor | @CraigTaylorViz: Legendary 3D maps made in #Cinema4D. Not only gorgeous maps but also perfectly animated worlds. His maps cannot be unseen. Clearly a #3dmap guru. #GIS #dataviz 2/14
Tyler Morgan-Wall |@tylermorganwall devlpr of the incredible R libraries #rayshader and #rayrender adding features & tutorials for free at an incredible pace: a *true treasure* for the #rstats #3dmaps & #3dviz world. A must-follow for 3d #dataviz. 3/14 🧵
