[Qgis-user] QGIS to Blender - Converter / free global elevation mesh dataset

[Michael Nolde]

Hi Bernd,

Admittedly, geoTriMesh does get rather slow when using "larger" input 
datasets. So you either might want to test with some lower resolution 
data, or use the tiling-option, which seperates the input data into 
smaller subsets.

For testing purposes, I included some sample files within the download, 
you can find them in the plugin-directory 
(\geoTriMeshQGIS\lib\geotrimesh\demodata). For a low resolution test 
run, you can use, for example:

Bondaries: 'osm_2017_pottenstein_simple.shp'

DEM: 'gtopo30_1996_clip_pottenstein.tif'

Orthofoto: 'bmng_2004_clip_pottenstein.tif'


It should not take longer than a couple of seconds.

I totally agree that a little help file would be useful. I will see to 
writing some more documentation in the near future.


Best regards,

Michael

Hi Michael,
I installed the plugin an tried to test it.

So far I got no results. I tried it with a clip of a DEM of 10km radius of
the EUR_DEM Dataset.
Seems it does not want to finish, the log sais for a while {"percent":
99.93917274939103, "status_desc": "Calculating row 821 of 822"}

Maybe you could write some general recommendations about which sizes to
use, caveats etc (aka a "little" help file ;))

Cheers
Bernd
