Untamed Atlas
Untamed Atlas is a project for 3D printing landscape jigsaw puzzles based on real-world GIS terrain data. Each puzzle piece contains actual topography from the selected region.
Workflow
- Generate puzzle pieces - Create jigsaw SVG patterns using a puzzle generator
- Prep in Fusion 360 - Import, scale, and outline the SVG pieces for extrusion
- Import terrain in Blender - Load GIS .tif elevation data and convert to 3D mesh
- Boolean intersection - Cut each puzzle piece shape from the terrain mesh
- Print - Export STLs and slice in Bambu Studio
Tools
- Jigsaw Generator for puzzle patterns
- Fusion 360 for SVG prep
- Blender with GIS addon for terrain processing
- Bambu Studio for slicing
