Perito Moreno Glacier (1 arc-second)

thingiverse

Perito Moreno Glacier in Argentina created using highly precise SRTM data from the Space Shuttle at an incredible resolution of 1 arcsecond, translating into approximately 2.4 million intricate polygons. Moreover, this enhanced version provides superior accuracy while covering a larger area compared to the original file, which boasts 3 arcseconds of resolution. This meticulously crafted model was designed utilizing a novel and still unreleased iteration of SRTM2STL. Developers interested in creating files at 3 arcsecond resolution can access the source code via GitHub under the permissive GNU license by searching for SRTM2STL. For those curious about the printing process, a captivating time-lapse video showcases the Perito Moreno model being printed on a Lulzbot Taz 5: https://youtu.be/oKOYGI5yQeo Consider printing this design at a relatively smaller scale. Excessive warping may occur when using PLA for larger prints, especially for Raised Relief Maps. Some individuals have successfully managed to print big maps, but it's crucial to implement effective warping control methods to achieve better results.
