Terrain Scan

Nori and I were out exploring today, looking for new objects to scan. I have always been fascinated with the railyard.

Red Rail Car - 3D model by Terrain Scan - Sketchfab Vancouver Island has a rich history, with remainents of it still remaining everywhere. This rail car sits abandoned in a yard that will soon be developed. Created in RealityCapture by Capturing Reality from 437 images in 00h:18m:30s.

I'm going to start digitally scanning unique real world objects more regularly. This is an example from last year. Hopefully I can find some more locations around Victoria. Let me know of other interesting spots you would like scanned.

This is a model from last year but I am using software to add trees and people. Experimenting with different techniques to help bring these scans to life.

The Kinsol Trestle Bridge, located in British Columbia, Canada, was built in 1920 as part of a rail line. Once one of the tallest wooden trestle bridges globally, it facilitated timber transportation. Abandoned in 1979, it was later restored and reopened in 2011 as a pedestrian and cycling path, showcasing its historic significance.

This 3D model is showing very impressive results for such a complex structure. Take a look!

This is a “Merlin” by Seagull. They are a Canadian company and this little guy was my travel companion. I really enjoy the sound. I have been testing out different software with different objects to figure out a workflow. This model was created using Reality Capture.
