Join the Arizona State University Library Map and Geospatial Hub for this two-hour workshop on printing geographical 3-D models. Participants will follow along with their personal laptops.This hands-on workshop will explore three types of geographical 3-D models thus far experimented with: Physiographic (topographic landscapes) Cityscapes (built environment meso-scale) Building and landscape architectures (built environment micro-scale) In all three of these instances, the primary data inputs will be publicly available geospatial datasets.We'll explore both web-based data extraction services that quickly provide appropriate data for 3-D printing, as well as raw data that requires some basic pre-processing in a free, open source geographic information system software application called QGIS.Participants will need to bring their own computers and pre-install the free software needed to follow along with workshop activities: QGIS: http://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/download.html Meshlab: http://www.meshlab.net/ Makerbot Print: https://www.makerbot.com/print/ Please see the full calendar of Map and Geospatial Hub events.
