An archaeology team was scanning ancient vessels, such as pots, with handheld scanners and wanted to know how much each one held. We trained the team in Geomagic Wrap and built the workflow from raw scan to internal volume.
The team could capture vessels in 3D, but turning a scan into a reliable internal volume was another matter. A scan shows the outside and inside surfaces; working out the space inside takes a clean, complete model and the right steps.
Large field collections also made the data hard to manage, so raw scans piled up without the measurements the research needed.
Bringing the scans of each vessel together into one complete model.
Filling gaps and removing noise so the inside surface is complete and ready to measure.
Closing off the vessel's opening and calculating the space inside, the same way every time.
Working with large field data sets without the software slowing down.
The team can now take a vessel from scan to internal volume on its own, and repeat it for every new find.
“Excellent program and software. There are so many applications that are helpful for archaeology.”
