Editor's Notes
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m Lieutenant Colonel of the Greek Army, PARASHOU is my surname, Haralampos is my name and it means “hara” plus “lampos” in greek: you are shining from joy ness. My family and friends call me Babis and I think it is easier for you also. I serve in NATO Deployable Corps in Greece and you can see on the screen my contact details via e-mail, facebook, office phone or cell phone. Next slide pls
This is the agenda of my presentation. First, a small introduction about NDC-GR HQ; Then I will present you the need for printing maps into the field that traditional offset printing technique is not adequate. In the end a few words about our next planned step – printing 3D maps into the field. PS: hide slides there iot describe in full detail some complicated methods and of course to give a reason to buy the cd with presentation Next slide pls

Here we can see the output device, the printer and the final result.
Also, after a market research a greek company PV Engineers.. After a market research in Greece, the Company PV.. fullfilled the criteria we put and the Z™ -series p rinters is, in our opinion, the most appropriate machine…
For the reasons that I am showing you in the next slide we chose this printer
An example of
The principal uses for 3D printed architecture models are design study, customer communication and creation of elements for presentation models. Pictured here is a model of a large sports stadium bowl developed by a leading architecture firm in the US Next pls
In early design exploration, many architects will use the printer to study a particular design element, rather than the complete finished design. In this case, the bowl of the stadium and the points of entry to the stadium are critical design elements. Next pls
The parts have impact with customers. Often these parts are used to get customer buy-in on key design elements. Full color parts also add an extra dimension in communication, and can be integrated with other elements to make a presentation model. The model pictured below is a proposed concept for an apartment group in Italy. Next pls
These models can be used with the traditional model making process to add value, including: Accurate terrain maps to form the base of a model Realistic secondary buildings in a cityscape. [Today the secondary buildings are often represented in simple block form only.] Any element that can be produced quickly and then finished by the model maker to the desired level. This allows the model maker to focus on higher value added tasks. Next pls
Z Corporation has pioneered the use of full color printing for GIS [Geographic Information Systems] data. These accurate, repeatable 3D terrain models can be used for a variety of research and planning functions. Next pls
We chose the level of detail and area we want to model, then we determine the size and scale of the model But how will the model be displayed? First exporting a VRML/PLY file for 3D printing from GIS software which includes: DEM (digital elevation model) Color Image Orthorectified, registered to the DEM. Satellite, Aerial, Annotation, Chloropleth We print 3D model of VRML file on 3D Printer using simple Z Corp software
Using quick, inexpensive models makes it possible to use 3D models frequently in customer communication and get better feedback These models can quickly create base geometry that can be further enhanced by a skilled model maker and used as a final presentation model The models are true to the digital data and reproducible. If a series of iterations are considered, each iteration is correct and not subject to differences in model making technique. Next pls
