Hello, You can consider OpenCascade(OCC) for 3D programming, it has also a python wrapper that is an opensource project. I use opencascade with qt for a desktop cad/cam application at my job. This is a link for python wrapper of OCC : https://github.com/tpaviot/pythonocc-core
I do not know much detail about this project but I think you can look this as well. Good luck, Berkay Elbir On Thu, Aug 13, 2015 at 3:59 PM, Carlos Jordão <carlosjor...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear list, > > I want to start a personal project about Network data visualization in 3D, > using python.
