Week 7:

This week the group had a large leap in progress and felt much more confident!
            Albert was able to have a basic foundation model that he created using google earth. The fellows were impressed and thought it was a good start. The details from the building needed to be in the final 3-D model created, however, they felt it was a very creative solution. We felt that a model was possible in the next two weeks and Albert was excited to use Creo to accomplish this. Alex, Susan, and DeDe were a little concerned he would not be able to create a model in enough time, however we have faith in him. 
            DeDe was able to stitch together an impressive amount of photos using 123D catch, however they will not be used in the end model. Our pictures were not good enough quality and the size of our building played a large role in that. The largest side of the Paul Peck Research and Development building was over 200 photos. This would mean at least three different stitched together pieces of side. 
            Susan and Alex worked on the blog and figured out how to submit a 3D print request form. It is coming down to the wire and are a little concerned because the bulk of the project will need to be done outside of class. They also worked on the final report draft. Susan collected sources and Alex formatted.
