Dear all,
still working on my 3D GIS for archaeological excavation. So, I managed successfully to create 3D vector
solids that represent archaeological strata (or contexts or layers, as you prefer) with a combination of creating upper and lower surface TINs in GRASS/Meshlab and joining them within 3D StudioMax (I have not found an Open source solution easy enough for me). I have imported the solids in GRASS, they seem to import nicely and they well visualise in Paraview. With the fact that they have to be handled as a combination of 3D faces rather than a unique solid, I am now facing a difficulty. How do I link the solids to my context database (which was given to me in Access but I have transformed into a simple cvs file)? Is the only solution that of linking the same context to all the single faces of my GRASS solid (in same cases more than 200/300)?
Has any one have any idea on a possible solution?
Thank you in advance.
