Hi,

at our institute a future item of a diploma thesis
shall be the use of ray-tracing software
(i.e.: Povray because every student can
afford it ;-) ) for scientific, forestry related applications.

This can be
- visualisation of landscapes with real geometry (e.g., based
on GIS data) and with vegetation (with more
or less real architecture), 
- modelling the light regime in plant/forest communities
(under different light conditions, at different layers)
combined with image analysis to evaluate the photosynthesic 
potential ...,
- and and and

Therefore, I would be very glad if you can tell me any
Povray (or other) source which might go in this direction.

Many thanks in advance!

Dieter
