Here's a visualization of global winds and precipitations on September 1st, 2019 (when [Hurricane Dorian](https://tinyurl.com/y3jewqqt) was hovering over the Bahamas, off the coast of Florida).

* Created in Python (using Matplotlib, NetCDF4, Scipy and Numpy modules)
* Public wind and precipitation data from the [NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis](https://tinyurl.com/y6mfqr6f)
* Wind particles colored according to speed (using Matplotlib "inferno" colormap)
* Rain particles scattered according to the precipitation rate

The seamless-loop effect was achieved by periodically spawning the particles at their initial location on a time range greater than the animation, and subsampling this time range before export. This effect was further enhanced by fading each particle's color to black at their birth and death, and using the "Additive" opacity in Sketchfab material settings to hide black points.

*PS: for Python enthusiasts, I've uploaded a [script to preview point cloud animations locally](https://tinyurl.com/yhyuuqev) !*

A Windy Day

This model is derived from the Egyptian Museum of Berlin's 3D scan of the *Bust of Nefertiti,* obtained by Cosmo Wenman after a three-year freedom of information effort directed at the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation.

This model was captured autonomously by Skydio 3D Scan. 3D Scan is a first-of-its-kind adaptive scanning software built on top of Skydio Autonomy. It allows the drone to automate data capture for generating 3D models with comprehensive coverage and ultra-high resolution, so that crews can perform higher quality scans in less time and with minimal pilot training.

A **map of Dark Souls** recreated in 1/bigger than 1 scale. Made by scanning, heavily editing and combining the game's invisible collision datas in Blender to make something viewable when close. It took longer than I expected, and it's far from, you know, good, but I hope it's educational or entertaining.
*(Oolacile, Ariamis and Undead Asylum not included due to the file being too big)*

Thank God for backface culling.

This 3D data of Kokura Castle was made using photogrammetry. This is Avatta's first attempt in using drones to make high quality 3D architectural scan. We have photographed over 1500 images from all directions and the data was processed using Agisoft Photoscan. 

Kokura Castle of Kitakyushu, Japan was built by Hosokawa Tadaoki in 1602. It was the property of the Ogasawara clan (from Harima) between 1632 and 1860. The castle was burnt down in 1866 in the war between the Kokura and Chōshū clans.

Mori Ogai was based at the castle at the turn of the 19th-20th century when it was a military base.
The keep was reconstructed in 1959, and the castle was fully restored in 1990. The Matsumoto Seicho museum and castle garden were opened in 1998. The old Japanese-style pre-Brunton lighthouse from Shirasu is in the castle grounds.

2200 satellites orbits and 67000 flight routes visualized in 3D 🛰️✈️ !

### Info

* Orbits are correctly scaled.
* Maximum airplanes altitude is overly exaggerated (by a factor of ~300).
* I'd advice you to visit the [Europen Space Agency (ESA) website](https://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Transportation/Types_of_orbits) to understand the different types of orbits, and learn why the ISS orbits around Earth in ~1h40 or why your satellite dish needs to be precisely calibrated.

### Orbits categories

* Dark blue: Communications
* Light blue: Earth Observation (optical, radar, meteo...)
* Red/Orange: Positioning systems (GPS, Galileo, BeiDou...)
* Green: R&D and Space science

A by-product of working with the [OpenData repository of the city of Paris](https://opendata.paris.fr/explore/?sort=modified): here **public lights** (bottom layer, orange-ish) and **trees** (top layer, multicolor).

Both datasets have an information on the objects height, which were superimposed to a Digital Elevation Model of Paris, interpolated in python from [**SRTM** data](https://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/) (Z-scale overly exagerated). The lights were colored according to their light temperature (available in the dataset), while the 25 most common kinds of trees were colored by species.

The resulting point cloud gives pretty interesting patterns (some of which I've annotated), especially in cemeteries and on the biggest streets. Too bad most of the public parks don't have associated tree data...

And if you don't know it already, I'd definitely advise French speakers to listen at this nicely related song by Maxime Le Forestier: [Comme un arbre](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clDxk0Wh--4).

This is a 3D model of a subadult Caribbean Reef Shark (Carcharhinus perezi) that was modeled after a shark swimming underwater with the OceanX and Cape Eleuthera Institute team in January 2019.  Divers captured video of this shark swimming, and artist Robert Gutierrez used Blender and preexisting shark data to recreate this individual.  As this model was recreated from photos and other data, we make no claim that it perfectly reflects an actual shark, but we have strived to be as anatomically correct as possible.

3D Scan of Godzilla toy from NECA, based on Legendary Pictures' 2019 *Godzilla: King of the Monsters* and part of the Monsterverse.

5/21/2020: Re-Uploaded with updated Texture.

3D scanned in color with the Artec Space Spider 3D scanner. Total time spent 3D scanning: 5 minutes. After scanning in initial position standing upright on turntable, the figure was flipped on its left and right sides to capture under the tail and feet. 

Total time processing in Artec Studio software: about 3 hours. This articulated figure was rigid during flipping, however the tail segments moved slightly. In order to preserve this detail and fix the movement in post, the raw data was duplicated and individual tail segments were isolated so they could independelty be repositioned relative to the initial upright scan.

* [February 2010 earthquake in Chile](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Chile_earthquake)
* Seismic activity in the [Tonga-Kermadec](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonga-Kermadec_Ridge) subduction system, the most "active" on earth (East of Australia)
* [Seismic activity in the Scotia Arc](http://earthjay.com/earthquakes/20160819_sandwich/civile_etal_2012_tectonics_scotia.pdf), where continents want to emerge (East of southern Chile)
* The fine [USGS](https://www.usgs.gov/) monitoring on the US west-coast, in Hawaii and in the Aleutian Trench (North Pacific), where even the smallest events (purple) are recorded.

Seismic data comes from the [Earthquake Catalog](https://earthquake.usgs.gov/fdsnws/event/1/), and was processed in Python.

Urban heat, pollution, noise, overcrowding are the plight of high density cities. Yet, density in metropolitan areas is also a solution to reduce urban footprint and mobility. High quality public space could make high-density cities a garden of paradise for human and non-human life. This manipulated point cloud model is an absurd, yet tempting reimagination of the streets around Niemeyer's Edifício Copan in Sao Paulo. Instead of busy road traffic, the buildings are immersed in an utopian urban park. In the face of increasing environmental pressures, this type of urban acclimatization landscape is set to become an imperative to ensure urban resilience.
