You will lucky to find something readymade for VPython.

This looks like it would be helpful for finding dome corrdinates,
which you can then use to plug-in to VPython:

And Kirby is probably an excellent source of information in the area
of the intersection of domes/Python/VPython. He knows a good deal
about each of these things.

I don't know whether he monitors this list. You might try posting to
ed*****@python.org which I know he monitors, to see if he has
something to suggest.

I might have some other suggestions if a understood what you were
trying to accomplish, and why.

You might try the following link
