Joe Mitchell showed his third prototype Caveatron 3D modelling device today at the Texas Speleological Survey meeting today. This device like others collects survey baseline data (distance azimuth inclination) but has an add on LiDAR module to gather point cloud data on the passage walls. Then you can process the 3D model and 3D print it like the section of Robber Baron Cave in Joes right hand. That is a section of maze about 60 m across that is quite detailed, you can see a bedding plane dip slightly across multiple passages that you would not otherwise detect.
