Creating a 3D graphic of Earth with varying volume elements

Hi I’m working on an intern project on tracking geo neutrinos within Earth. I’m just wondering if it is possible to create a 3D graphic of the Earth with different volume elements, split up by the lines of latitude and longitude with the ROOT geometry package?

Welcome to the ROOT forum.

I think @agheata can help.

Sure, if it is just the latitude/longitude you want, you can use thin cylindrical rings for meridians (only one placed multiple times) and conical rings (for parallels), like in the attached macro.
