S21 | Dig 1: Fogou - 3D Model
Added 2022-03-17 13:13:06 +0000 UTCIt's nearly time for our first public premiere, and we're getting just a little bit excited!
If you've already watched the exclusive preview (available here on Patreon), you'll have seen our fascinating 3D photogrammetry model of the Cornish fogou.
We are now pleased to share this interactive model on Sketchfab - a platform that enables you to rotate, interrogate and fly through the model yourselves.
Access the model here: https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/fogou-site-plan-085fcb5c4f3a4e9ab8eb421d25bf816e
This is the first of many 3D models that we'll be releasing to coincide with the new episodes, showcasing everything from the wider topography to trenches and individual finds. Keep a look out for the next instalment, coming soon.

This is the model for the surface, but there was a more complete model showing the underground parts - is that available anywhere? Also, a curiosity question regarding the underground laser mapping - did anyone take remote control vehicles down into those tunnels deemed unsafe for people? I'm curious if the laser mapping was purely line-of-site from the entrance for those, or whether there was an attempt to go round the corners to see what was there.

2022-03-19 20:49:59 +0000 UTCI miss Mick, his relaxed yet thorough professionalism and genuine friendliness continue to be an inspiration. Did the stripes have any particular meaning to him? If I had any striped sweaters, I would wear them in honor to him!

2022-03-19 15:20:41 +0000 UTC3D model is amazing! I need to figure out how to get into the pathway and walk along it! Which raises the question - where is the original entrance to that underground pathway? Is it on the 3D model, or has that yet to be found? What did the original entrance to the underground pathway look like? was it open and elaborate or was it hidden?

2022-03-18 01:54:34 +0000 UTCWorked fine with my iPad. It took a few seconds to load on full screen, but worked fine once it did. Enjoyed this a lot.
