This is an R package designed for producing beautiful and interactive 2D and 3D visualizations — especially maps and terrain renderings — using elevation/gridded data and ray-tracing / hill-shading methods.

Users can rotate, zoom, and animate the scenes or script camera trajectories programmatically. It supports outputting high-quality renders via path tracing (using a companion package) and also offers depth-of-field (“cinematic blur”) effects to bring visual focus into scenes. ...
