=====================
Visualization module for vector fields.
``javascript
var createScene = require('gl-plot3d')
var createConePlot = require('gl-cone3d')
var createMesh = createConePlot.createConeMesh
var wind = require('dataset-wind')
var scene = createScene()
var bounds = [];
var conePlot = createConePlot({
positions: wind.positions,
vectors: wind.vectors,
coneSize: 4,
colormap: 'portland'
}, bounds)
var mesh = createMesh(gl, conePlot)

npm i gl-cone3d
#### var conePlot = require('gl-cone3d')(params, bounds)
Creates a cone plot of a vector field.
* params is an object that has the following properties:
+ positions (Required) An array of positions determining the location of the cones, encoded as arraysvectors
+ (Required) An array of vectors for the vector field, encoded as arraysconeSize
+ Size of the cones, scaled so that the reference cone size for the maximum vector magnitude is 1absoluteConeSize
+ Size of the cones, scaled so that the reference cone size for vector magnitude 1 is one grid unit.coneOffset
+ The position of the cone with regard to the cone location. Ranges from 0 to 1 where 0 puts the center of the cone base at the cone location, and 1 puts the tip at the cone location.colormap` Colormap for the cone plot.
+
Returns A cone plot object that can be passed to gl-mesh3d.
