[Therion] 3D viewer CaveView

[Xavier Robert]

Hi all,

I am also using it, not for my own use, but to provide on the web a 3D view of caves systems we are exploring. If you are interested, you may find it there (in French) : https://www.groupe-speleo-vulcain.com/explorations/topographies-3d/ <https://www.groupe-speleo-vulcain.com/explorations/topographies-3d/>
The most interesting is probably the Jean-Bernard 3D (just be patient to load it…) : https://www.groupe-speleo-vulcain.com/wp-content/themes/custom_theme/3d/JB.html <https://www.groupe-speleo-vulcain.com/wp-content/themes/custom_theme/3d/JB.html> 
By default, walls are on, but it may be ugly, do not hesitate to set them off.

By the way, I agree with you Tarquin, the tool I really miss in Loch, this is a way to measure 
a distance (horizontal, vertical and straight line) between stations of the same cave, or between different caves.

Cheers,

Xavier
