Mount Sinabung

thingiverse

Mount Sinabung is a formidable stratovolcano located in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Created from 1 arcsecond resolution SRTM data extracted from the Space Shuttle, this precise representation encompasses approximately 0.6 million polygons. This exceptional model was generated utilizing a pioneering version of SRTM2STL, which has not yet been released to the public. For users seeking higher resolutions at 3 arcseconds or finer, a source code is freely available on github under the generous terms of the GNU license. To achieve optimal results, it's advisable to print these files in a relatively compact format, especially when working with PLA filament. Warping issues tend to escalate when printing large Raised Relief Maps using this material. However, those who have succeeded in overcoming these challenges report achieving excellent results with large-scale prints. Those who have managed to control warping may also experience greater success when working with extensive maps.
