Lanin - Argentina

thingiverse

Lanin is a majestic Stratovolcano shared by Argentina and Chile. Its detailed structure is carefully crafted using 1 arcsecond resolution SRTM data from the Space Shuttle, resulting in approximately 1.3 million polygons. A revolutionary new version of SRTM2STL was employed to create this model, showcasing cutting-edge technology yet to be officially released. The source code for producing files at 3 arcsecond resolution is freely available on github, distributed under the terms of the GNU license. To access the software, navigate to github and conduct a search for SRTM2STL. Consider printing the model on a scale that is relatively small, as this can help mitigate warping issues, especially when using PLA material. Larger models, particularly those designed with Raised Relief Maps in mind, can exacerbate warping problems, although some users have achieved 'some' success with bigger prints. Those who possess effective control over warping may also find better luck with printing large maps.
