Description
We present results obtained from our newly developed Galactic cosmic
ray transport code Picard, that solves the cosmic ray transport
equation. This code allows for the computation of cosmic ray spectra
and the resulting gamma-ray emission. Relying on contemporary
numerical solvers allows for efficient computation of deca-parsec
scale resolution models. Picard can handle locally anisotropic spatial
diffusion acknowledging a full diffusion tensor. We used the framework
to investigate the transition from axisymmetric to spiral-arm cosmic
ray source distributions. Wherever possible we compare model
predictions with constraining observables in cosmic ray astrophysics.
