3D model of a cairn grave near the Bear Trap in Northwest Greenland
This dataset consists of four files (in addition to the README file) that can be used to view a high-resolution 3D model of a cairn grave that is positioned near ‘The Bear Trap’, a unique Norse ruin at the western end of the Nuussuaq Peninsula in NW Greenland (also called ‘Bjørnefælden’ in Danish, a...

This dataset consists of four files (in addition to the README file) that can be used to view a high-resolution 3D model of a cairn grave that is positioned near ‘The Bear Trap’, a unique Norse ruin at the western end of the Nuussuaq Peninsula in NW Greenland (also called ‘Bjørnefælden’ in Danish, and ‘Putdlagssuaq’ or ‘The Great Trap’ Greenlandic Kalaallisut). The 3D model was created from 641 digital photographs that were processed using Structure from Motion Multiview Stereo photogrammetry software (in this case Agisoft PhotoScan Pro v1.4; Linux Ubuntu).
