📽️ Create a movie with your digital outcrop model - Quick Tip. In #VRGS, a flight path is a route defined by key frames. Use them to create #video with the in-built recorder 👇 Have fun! #geology #video

[David Hodgetts @VRGeoscience]

Quick Tip: Use contours and grids on meshes in #VRGS to demonstrate scale. Accurate size representation is key for geologists to understand outcrops. These features help create precise models of terrain, crucial for analysing complex geological formations. #geology
