test data mapbox_st_helens.png and terrarium.png result is not expected

[sugizo]

env google colab

steps

pip install -U pydelatin meshio
!wget -c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kylebarron/pymartini/master/test/data/mapbox_st_helens.png
!wget -c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kylebarron/pymartini/master/test/data/terrarium.png

code

import imageio.v2 as imageio
import meshio
from pydelatin import Delatin
from pydelatin.util import decode_ele, rescale_positions

path = './terrarium.png'
terrarium = imageio.imread(path)
terrain = decode_ele(terrarium, 'mapbox')
tin = Delatin(terrain, max_error = 30)
vertices, triangles = tin.vertices, tin.triangles
cells = [("triangle", triangles) ]
mesh = meshio.Mesh(vertices, cells)
mesh.write('terrarium.stl')

result

expected result elevation is show accurately like mt_fuji.png in your github test data

terrain = decode_ele(terrarium, 'mapbox')

Well this is wrong. You're decoding a terrarium-encoded file as if it were encoded with mapbox encoding

[sugizo]

terrarium.png result is expected when set decode to terrarrium

first post st_helens is decode using 'mapbox'

this are try to decode st_helens using 'terrarium'

still not expected for st_helens.png

The St Helens file came from Mapbox, and so that should be loaded with "mapbox" decoding.

From your screenshot, the mesh from St Helens looks flat. You should be able to easily get the elevations of each vertex in the mesh and use numpy to get min/max values. Can you do that and verify that those min/max values are in the range of Mt. St. Helens?

I would not be surprised if the error is in the conversion to meshio, not in my code. I never had an issue like this with pydelatin or with pymartini in production.

how to get the elevations of each vertex in the mesh and use numpy to get min/max values ?

thanks and best regards
