This repository documents how the video was made and enables its reproduction.
## Open Data
- earthquakes: United States Geological Survey (USGS)
- contours: Copyright © OpenStreetMap contributors / Open Database License 1.0
## Open Source Software
- pycairo: 2D rendering
- custom ray-tracer: 3D to 2D
- numpy & numba: acceleration
- zarr: data handling & storage
- ffmpeg: video encoding
## Rendering the video yourself
Ensure that you have the following software installed:
- `python` (3.6 or newer)
- `cairo` (plus header / development files)
- `zlib` (plus header / development files)
- `ffmpeg`
- `gcc`
- `git`
Clone this repository from Github and change into its directory:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/pleiszenburg/earthquakes_youtube01.git
cd earthquakes_youtube01/
```
Create a new virtual environment if desired and activate it:
```bash
python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -U pip setuptools
```
Now you can install the dependencies, fetch the data and render the video:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
./prepare_osm.py
./prepare_usgs.py
./render_frames.py
./render_video.py
```
