Emriver Em4 coded media and CRP updates.


Draft, delta building and stratigraphy, Emriver Em4 model. from Steve Gough on Vimeo.

We are moving fast with our Em4 work, partly in preparation for GSA in Minneapolis, where I’ll be giving a talk about use of color coded by size (CCS) media and also Close Range Photogrammetry (CRP).  We’re also now trying out a Gigapan system.

Here you can see the draft video of a run last week in which we built a delta.  We lowered base level (the standpipe) to cut channels through it, and then sliced it to show various stratigraphy.  I’m very happy with the results!  The music is just a placeholder, if it bothers you, turn it down, there is no narration.

You’ll find a Gigapan of the sliced sediment here:  http://gigapan.org/gigapans/85919/

And here’s an older video showing details of the CCS.  Note that we’re experimenting with a finer red colored fraction added since this video was made.
