All that plastic
bondarchuk•12h ago
What of it?

I always love these miniatures when I see them in museums, airports, city halls, etc.

Maybe I missed it, I didn't see where the data came from. I am wondering if someone did scans of the city with something that generates point cloud data. Or maybe extrapolated from a 2d satellite and then later fixed by humans?

marceldegraaf•11h ago
The Netherlands has very complete and reliable public datasets (provided by the government) that contain loads of information about roads, buildings, up to individual trees. Additionally, there's sites like Netherlands3D[0] that combines these datasets into a 3D representation of the entire country.

very cool! thank you

I love the overhead projector adding another level of information to this.

I wonder how hard it would be to make one of these of my town.

Surely there's publicly available lidar data that I could import into some software to slice it into squares small enough for me to 3D-print? Although I guess I'd have to make sure I'm not just printing noise where trees are...

pineaux•11h ago
it depends how big you want to scale it. This one must be quite costly by the look of it. I wouldnt be surprised if it costs multiple hundreds of thousands to realise this maquette.
pavel_lishin•9h ago
Oh, I'm sure - this is a professional installation. I'd have a budget of... whatever filament I have laying around :P

Hell, might be easier to somehow convert my 3D printer into something that can cut XPS foam instead.

In my opinion, this is the kind of thing that is better done with AR.
skylurk•8h ago
Isn't it AR? Or do you mean the headset kind?
intrasight•3h ago
I did mean the headset kind.

I guess one could say that all human artifacts augment reality.
