@jonching_ Mind you, when the texture is reprojected over the top of the added geometry it does look pretty cool when zoomed out. Thanks for the suggestion!

@jonching_ I love Hoi An. Right now it's really only suited to areas with dramatic / strong topographic relief. As for buildings, there is OSM data for building shapes that can be pulled in but they are just primitive shapes. Did a quick test, take a look.

I've been posting a few minimaps or "pucks" after making them with an app I built using Claude, Three.js, Google, ESRI and OpenTopography. Very straightforward: scroll around the world map or search for a location, pick an area of interest, line it up in the frame and hit capture. Then just make some adjustments and export an image, orbiting video or an .stl. Just another cool way to explore and share the world. Hope to make it live after improving the experience.

@semo_dron I'll post once the app is online or on GitHub!

@ShutterCG How can we create that maps?

Happy 31st birthday to Blender!

This ad is (unintentional) perfect metaphor for today's creative dark age: compress organic instruments, joyful/imperfect machines, tangible art, our entire physical reality into a soulless, postmodern, read-only device a multi-trillion $ corporation controls what you do with

@Blender is turning 30 next month. I can't believe it! This is a phenomenal achievement in open source software. Happy to donate to support what has been an amazing product for me in my photogrammetry workflow and just general artistic experiments. fund.blender.org

Amazing thread on Reddit about the AI model that used my art without my permission to train their model and even named it after me. Apparently I am the bad person for wanting to get it taken down, and wanting to “brigade” (??) it. reddit.com/r/StableDiffus…

photogrammetry is beautiful

Agisoft Metashape users - came across a blog post by @adamdekaminski that outlines settings and tweaks to better reconstruct fine details dekaminski.com/sa-3d-skannar-…

More amazing results once again from @DroneDeploy Collected for @GFCBSanctuaries with the @DJIEnterprise M30
