3D imaging is a revolutionary tool that provides us with detailed and accurate representations of geological features and structures. By creating high-resolution three-dimensional models, we can better visualize, analyze, and interpret complex formations and processes, as well as transfer them to objects and improve the planning of infrastructure or modeling.
Our 3D lab improves our understanding of the spatial relationships and geometries of volcanoes, rock units, fault systems, and deposits, which is crucial for applications ranging from resource exploration to natural hazard assessment. In addition, our 3D imaging enables the precise measurements and design blueprints required for instruments and simulations.
The ability to visualize and interact with geological data in three dimensions significantly advances research, education, and practical applications in the geosciences.
Therefore, our lab is equipped with cameras, scanners, and a 3D printer.
