Recipe Objective
Make 3D Volume plots using plotly.
Volume plot this shows many partial transparent isosurfaces for rendering the volume. The opacityscale parameter of this plot results in a depth effect and generates better volume rendering. Three-dimensional volume visualization is a method that allows one to observe and manipulate 3D volumetric data. It represents 3D objects in terms of surfaces and edges approximated by polygons and lines.

Step 1 - Import libraries
import plotly.graph_objects as go
import numpy as np
Step 2 - Take Sample Data
x_data = np.linspace(-5, 5, 10)
y_data = np.linspace(-6, 6, 12)
z_data = np.linspace(-6, 6, 12)
X, Y, Z = np.meshgrid(x_data, y_data, z_data)
values = (np.sin(X**2 + Y**2))/(X**2 + Y**2)
Step 3 - Plot graph
fig = go.Figure(data=go.Volume(
x=X.flatten(),
y=Y.flatten(),
z=Z.flatten(),
value=values.flatten(),
opacity=0.2,
))
fig.show()
