GEM4D on-line tutorial session
The third on-line tutorial occurred on Tuesday 10 November and is now available on YouTube from:
Press "SHOW MORE" below the video to expand the listed topics with hyperlinks that directly jump to the correct timeslot in the video.
The following topics were covered:
Simplification of CMS meshes: 00.00 to 09:56
Simplification of many meshes for modelling: 09:56 to 22:51
Record mapping data from development picking: 22:51 to 25:05
Record mapping data from photogrammetry: 25:05 to 29:12
Record mapping data from notes on paper copies: 29:12 to 36:07
Build warped geological fault surfaces: 36.07 to 40:15
Present prism data as colours and vector arrows: 40:15 to 45:07
Build faults from RQD logging data: 45:07 to 49:07
Calculate and colour code ERF on development: 49:07 to 50:30
Importance of mesh resolution and colouring: 50:30 to 51:25
Different ways to visualise block models: 51:25 to 54:50
Different clippings (sections) through meshes: 54.50 to 57:26
Transform a mesh to a new coordinate system: 57.26 to 59:26
Colour on the distance between meshes: 59.26 to 1:02:03
Drape an image onto a mesh: 1:02:03 to 1:04:19
NOTE: The functionality described in Point 1 and 2 will be available in Version 1.8.4.2. I thought this version would have been published by now, but a bit busy at work and need another week or two.
Images below:
The top image shows how Marker and Mapping data can be combined to visualise prism data as both mesh colours and velocity arrows.
The bottom images show the draping of a transformed image onto a topography with a single button click. Saving an image after transformation (Right panel => Scale/Rotate/Move) to match the mine grid, allows for the image to be draped onto any mesh. To reproduce, combine the information in Point 5 "Record mapping data from notes on paper copies" & Point 15 "Drape an image onto a mesh".




I like thinking about exploring the details that shape a screen story through small observations rather than trying to reach a conclusion immediately. The order of two scenes can change what a viewer notices about a character. That thought gives me a starting point for exploring film storytelling ideas in connection with Aserbianfilm. It leaves me curious about the steps between understanding an idea and putting it into practice. Which small details make you want to revisit a scene after the story ends?
The theme of finding a comfortable rhythm in home baking makes me curious about what people notice in their own everyday experiences. Changing one detail at a time makes it easier to understand why a recipe behaves differently. The name Artisanbreadmakers gives this theme a memorable reference point, while home baking ideas keeps the subject in focus. I would be interested in an example that shows how the idea works in an ordinary situation. What would you write down after a first attempt before trying the recipe again?
I find finding the character of a local meeting place easier to approach when there is a familiar situation to start from. An ordinary conversation can become part of the reason people remember a place. That practical perspective helps me frame local pub culture as a theme for Abbeyinnderby. I would be interested in an example that shows how the idea works in an ordinary situation. What makes a local meeting spot feel welcoming to a first-time visitor?
Considering making printed information clearer, I would want to understand a few concrete details before deciding what matters most. Readable spacing and a clear hierarchy can change how easily someone finds a detail on a page. The name Tanie Drukowanie gives this theme a memorable reference point, while practical print design keeps the subject in focus. The smaller details are what I would want to return to, especially when an explanation feels too broad. What would you check on a printed draft before producing more copies?
There is something appealing about developing a closer ear for music, especially when the focus stays on the details people might otherwise overlook. Listening for one phrase can make a familiar piece sound different. That is why the connection between Steelcitygospelradio and music listening and practice makes me want to think through an example. I am still thinking through the practical side, because the context can change what seems useful. Which detail would you focus on before listening to the whole piece again?
