Coding Challenge #58: 3D Earthquake Data Visualization
1,183In this coding challenge, I follow up on the Earthquake Data Visualization challenge and create a 3D version in Processing(Java) using spherical coordinates. I also discuss some 3D vector math including the cross product. Code: https://thecodingtrain.com/challenges/58-3d-earthquake-data-visualization
