Dr. Barsky figured out how to use splines to create a highly detailed digital template of the human cornea.
Viewed on a computer, his massively detailed digital images some, a billion pixels each make glaciers look as damp and close as a cocktail.
But the setting never dwarfs the characters in the way, say, the cast of the recent "Sherlock Holmes" is subsumed by that film's gorgeous, compulsively detailed digital London.
His view of the Time Warner Center on Columbus Circle depicts buildings that seem to glow from within, as opposed to the exactly detailed digital version produced by Archimation.
So says the Parisian engineer Pascal Cotte, who maintains that his highly detailed digital scans, above, of this 16th-century portrait of a Florentine merchant's wife allowed him to burrow through layers of paint to "see" its past, The Associated Press reported.
The Canary Islands have donated high-resolution imagery to Google in the hope that virtual visitors might become real tourists, and the city of Berlin has made its painstakingly detailed digital models available through Google Earth.For governments that are used to hiding things from each other's spy satellites, the advent of the geobrowsers does not change things very much.
Collectively, IoT devices have already started to paint detailed digital portraits of consumer lives — identity, interests and behaviors.
However, the creation of natural-color maps still requires many steps, a significant time investment, and fairly detailed digital land cover information, which makes this technique impossible to apply to global web maps at medium and large scales.
Detailed digital soil maps showing the spatial heterogeneity of soil properties consistent with the landscape are required for site-specific management of plant nutrients, land use planning and process-based environmental modeling.
In the simulations here described, we have generated a large number of tracks crossing the NEMO site by means of a detailed Digital Elevation Map of the under-water Earth surface, which is available from the Global Relief Data survey (ETOPO2): a grid of altimetry measurements with a vertical resolution of 1 m averaged over cells of 2 minutes of latitude and longitude.
To illustrate and assess the impacts of structural channel controls and flow reregulation on channel processes and fish habitat quality in multiple life stages, a highly detailed digital elevation model was collected and analyzed for a river reach right below a dam using a suite of hydrologic, hydraulic, geomorphic, and ecological methods.
