About

 

Colorbomb is a Python-based tool that uses a k-means clustering algorithm, together with the Python Imaging Library, to generate colormaps for cartography.

The static content for the whole Colorbomb page is automatically generated as part of the process of creating the color maps.

Colorbomb will plow through a directory full of images and generate the index, plus a page for each colormap displaying the 5-scale, 7-scale, and 9-scale colormaps overlaid on a map using Leaflet.

Pelican is then used to turn the resulting information into static content for a website.

You can find the Colorbomb code on Github.
