LGEO is a library of LEGO parts modeled by POV-Ray primitives.
When exporting LDraw parts to POV-Ray format, tools like LDView can use an XML file,
usually named LGEO.xml, to substitute dedicated parts by their LGEO implementations. (The older tool L3P uses the two files lg_elements.lst and lg_colors.lst to accomplish the same thing.)
Starting from the original library by Lutz Uhlmann, many people edited and added parts to it. This sadly has led to a tree of variations, not a single collection. This tree is shown here:

┣━━━ LGEO update by Lars C. Hassing (outdated†)
┣━━━ LGEO update by Damien Roux
┗━━━ does anybody know more variants? please add them here
* = site seems to be offline
† = Lars' "updated" parts are older than the ones included with the AIOI. Don't use them.
