you don't care, but I'm amazed by the state of real-world 3D modelling right now.

Posted by mafic Dec 8 '16, 00:11

I'm playing with high-resolution textured meshes today. we have a LIDAR survey of a quarry here in town flown by a drone, with photogrammetry data.

it's about 40,000m2 of data, and I have a mm-scale accurate 3D model of what the ground looked like on Tuesday. I can read the writing on crates, and resolve individual trees. the whole thing took a few hours to put together.

ok, on closer inspection it gets a little fuzzy around tree leaves and the edges of scaffolding. so not mm-accurate *everywhere*. -- nm - mafic Dec 8, 00:12 1
