Hello,
I would like to know if POV-Ray supports user written plugins for importing
datasets, or do I need to convert the data into another format and then
convert it into POV-Ray format?
Thank you
Karla

What kind of datasets? Maybe the File I/O Directives
(http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/147/) of POV-Ray are sufficient?

There is no need for some fancy conversion program. POV-Ray uses a simple
text format (as explained in the user manual) and it should be trivial to
directly convert your datasets to a scene you can render directly, assuming
you have some code able to parse your datasets, of course.
