Constellations from Around the World (2019)

The GitHub repository titled "Constellations from Around the World," created by Eleanor Lutz, aims to map constellations from various cultures globally. It utilizes data from Stellarium and the HYG Database. The project is built using Python (version 3.7.1) along with design software such as Illustrator CC 2019 and Photoshop CC 2019. Key features include a list of Python dependencies like `matplotlib`, `numpy`, `cartopy`, and `pandas`, which can be installed via a requirements file. The repository provides comprehensive instructions for gathering and processing star data, designing maps in Python, and refining them in design software. It also includes beginner-friendly resources for learning coding and design skills.

The content is structured into several sections: gathering and processing data, map design in Python, and enhancing maps using Illustrator and Photoshop. Additionally, it cites sources and licenses for the data and artwork used. The code is licensed under the GPL-3.0 license, while the data and artwork are shared under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License.
