In preparation for involvement with the upcoming EER event, I have created three new demo videos for the SaD(Strike and Dip) Tool project. These short videos exhibit many of the basic functions of the SaD Tool, as well as display some of the intro turotials and elements that are currently in the prototype phase of development.

Prototype Overview Demo

This first video is a quick overview of many of the primary functions and features of the SaD Tool project. This video quickly displays examples of the rotation tutorial, the strike/dip tutorial, right hand rule hand outlines, the 3D model database, the tarlair landscape model, 360 image integration, annotation nodes, and taking a few strike and dip measurements. Many of these short examples will be displayed in more detail in later demo videos.

Strike and Dip Measurements Demo

This second video displays the user taking a series of strike and dip measurements around the tarlair arch 3d outcrop model using the SaD compass tool.

Right Hand Rule Demo

This last video demonstrates the prototype hand outlines used to teach the right hand rule method of taking strike and dip measurements. In this video an outline of a simple human hand can be seen connected to the underside of the compass in order to exemplify hand placement when determining the direction of strike and dip. This video also displays an example slope with arrows representing the strike and dip of the slope, as well as a hand outline to demonstrate the right hand rule.
