Pearls

Pearls are the most valuable of all organic gemstones, and have been prized for 6000 years. Pearls chemical makeup varies by region and environmental factors, but the basic formula is CaCO3. Pearls form through irritants entering specific species of mollusks (oysters, clams, muscles, etc), while the irritant can be a grain of sand or a parasite, the process is the same for pearls. The irritant is coated in CaCO3(mother of pearl) to make it less irritating to the mollusk.

3D Map Generator – GEO

Available for PC and MAC as Plugin for

Photoshop CC (from v 14.2)

The 3D Map Generator – GEO“ is especially created for illustrating complex geographical 3D maps. In opposite to the current „3D Map Generator 2“ the new „3D Map Generator – GEO“ can be used to create big 3D maps in smaller map scales. With a few clicks it is possible to generate isometric 3D maps in 3 different orientations with heights and depths in the terrain. As basic shapes there can be used text layers, vector shapes, Smart Objects or one of 52 vector country shapes. For designing the map there are different new tools, textures, effects, brushes and 37 icons and elements available. The generated 3D maps can be edited and redesigned for unlimited times. No layers will be flattened. Of course it is also possible to put own textures onto the surface and to use own brushes, effects, icons or other elements.

Myanmar landslide: 90 dead at Kachin jade mine | MINING ACCIDENTS |

At least 100 people have died in a landslide in a remote jade mining area of northern Myanmar, officials said last night.

Those killed were thought to have been mainly itinerant miners, who scavenge through mountains of waste rubble dumped by mechanical diggers to make a living.

The landslide crushed dozens of flimsy shanty huts, where the workers had made their homes.

Rescue operations continue with the Myanmar Red Cross, army, police and local community groups, but officials say they have little hope of pulling people alive from the rubble.

Nilar Myint, an official from the local administrative author­it­ies in Hpakant, northern Kachin­, said: “We are seeing only dead bodies.”

Due to the fact that because the men were mostly migrant workers, authorities were struggling to identify any of those killed.

“They only live and work in this area but they come from many different places,” she said.

Myanmar is the source of virtually all of the world’s finest jadeite, an almost translucent green stone that is valued above almost all other materials in neighbouring China.

Digital Elevation Model (DEM) Resolution Enhancement

03Surface Interpolation

This exercise will guide you through a Method to generate a New finer resolution of a DEM. 

1. Add the dem grid to ArcMap. Check if the grid has a 30 meter cell size and a UTM projection.

2. Enable Spatial Analyst extension From Customize > Extension.

3. Open ArcToolBox >>  Data Management Tools toolbox / Raster Processing toolset >>Resample.

DEM  Resample

We now try to resample the 30 meter DEM to finer resolutions. 

First we need to convert the DEM grid into elevation points. 

1. Spatial Analyst Tools toolbox / Extraction toolset >> Sample.

DEM Sampling

2. Specify dem 30m as the input raster and as the input location raster, pnt30m_table.dbf as the output, and NEAREST as the resample technique. 

3. From the ArcMap Layer Panel, right-click on pnt30_table.dbf and select Display XY Data.... Make sure x is in the X field, y in the Y field, and dem30 in the Z field. 

DEM Display points

4. Export the point event data to a shapefile to make them permanent. select Data / Export Data, and save the output as pnt30.shp.

5. Use the spatial interpolation techniques to generate DEMs from the point data set we just created. The first method we use is Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW). 

ArcToolbox/Spatial Analyst Tools/Interpolation.

DEM Interpolation 

6. The DEM automatically added to ArcMap uses a symbology that is difficult to show the subtle variations in the DEM. Change the symbology of the DEM layer from "classified" to "stretched". With this display option, the DEM is displayed as a grayscale map that shows the detail of the terrain.
