Galap Crater on my kitchen table

Written By Todd Heberlein

This weekend I finally got back to my side project of visualizing digital terrain data. This time I leveraged Apple’s ARKit and put Mars’s Galap Crater on my kitchen table.

The length of the model in real life is about 10 km (over 6 miles), so the crater is huge, and those gullies in the crater wall, potentially formed by water, are also quite large.
