New Zealand is an island country in the South Pacific Ocean as part of Oceania. The country is known for rugby, kiwi, sheep, and its indigenous Maori culture. New Zealand is located to the southeast of Australia, which is separated by the Tasman Sea. Also, the islands of Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, and New Caledonia are all close to New Zealand to the north. New Zealand is made up of two main islands – the North (Te Ika-a-Māui) and the South Island (Te Waipounamu), which are separated by the Cook Strait. The South Island is the larger of the two islands and is less populous but contains the two major cities of Christchurch and Dunedin. Whereas the North Island is smaller in size but more populous with major cities like Auckland, Wellington, and Hamilton. Additionally, New Zealand’s capital city Wellington is located on the southwest corner of the North Island.
What can I use a 3D model in STL format for?
STL model of New Zealand can be used for various purposes:
- Making physical models from plastic or photopolymer using 3D printers
- Making models of wood or metal using CNC machines
- Making a high-resolution relief using 3D laser markers
- Making of “master forms” for duplication of products using foam polystyrene or concrete
- Creating computer graphics
- Creation of low-polygonal models for computer games
What is the resolution of the 3D model of New Zealand?
With the development of technology, it is becoming possible to produce more and more precise relief models.
For example, there are 3D printers that can print models with a layer height of 0.16 mm, 0.1 mm, 0.05 mm, or even less. These devices require high-quality models. But a higher-quality 3D model contains more polygons and has a larger file size. One of the challenges is to find a compromise between the file size of the STL model, which would be convenient to work with, and the desired quality of the finished product.
The 3D model of New Zealand has a fairly large size and many polygons.
How do I change the parameters of the STL model of New Zealand?
You can easily resize the model in any program that allows you to import STL files.
In addition to changing the scale in width, length, and height, you can add a higher base. You can also use anti-aliasing tools, add bulk text, reduce the number of polygons, etc.
