Uni. of Helsinki project for developing digital learning materials in geosciences.

Quest of combining #subsurface #geophysical point cloud data with #mesh models has led us to the world of #Potree, #WebGL based point cloud renderer that will allow us to showcase large areas and their #geological features in the extent needed to comprehend geological processes👌

Fall of data processing has been about transforming material into models and combining different #3D content such as #GPR and #photogrammetry together. Surprisingly good models despite some challenging drone shooting conditions of last summer. Wonderful to see ideas come to life!

2 days at the fantastic #Visual3D conference were full of intresting ideas and insights into #visualization of #geoscience related #3D-content. An excellent energy boost for our project, thank you for the organizers and participants!

The #sandur in #Lyngsdalen with 3 glacier fronts was the last spot on our expedition. 4k video and #gigapan 360 panoramas were aquired at the magnificent outwash plane. We aim to provide #openaccess #virtualreality environments from all visited sites! #geodigiexpedition2019

Our first site at Kalkkimaa quarry in Tornio features two-billion-year-old dolomite and quartz schist layers folded against a reverse fault. We captured a #GigaPan and photogrammetry imagery with the #MavicAir #drone to create a #VirtualReality model. #geodigiexpedition2019

Beauty and power of typical granite #weathering. These #Tor formations with weak/no #glacial erosion have a weathering surface predating the last glacial period and are situated in the Late Weichselian SIS ice divide zone. #geodigiexpedition2019 #photogrammetry #3D #drone #Sompio

A misty day at #Bigganjarga, a Neoproterozoic unconformity overlain by a #diamictonite, suggested to be #tillite of glacial origin. Another successful endeavor with #GPR measurements and flying the drone to capture a #photogrammetry model of the outcrop. #geodigiexpedition2019

Sadly we had no luck finding the #stromatolite in Syltefjorden, but fortunately we got some nice structures captured with #GigaPan. As the sun never sets we enjoy the views of the northeastern Norway around the clock! #geodigiexpedition2019

Lovely walk to #Steindalen #Glacier where we captured different moraines, the #outwashplane and the glacier front that are analogues to #sedimentary environments we can find also in #Finland. The #topography is evidently different though 😄 #geodigiexpedition2019

[UHgeodigi @UHGeodigi]

Join our trip through the Finnish and Norwegian Lapland as we explore and capture features of glacial geology, sedimentology and structural geology, and turn them into spectacular learning materials. #geodigiexpedition2019 #digiloikka @Digiloikka_HY @Geo2Helsinki
