Why
December the 9th, 2022 is the three year anniversary of the tragedy at Whakaari/White Island and I wanted to do something to commemorate the victims of the eruption.
Volcanic Eruption
At 14:11 NZDT on 9th December 2019; Whakaari / White Island erupted taking 22 lives and severely injuring 25 others.

Koha/Donation
It would be repugnant to accept any benefit from this token. However, If you feel you must acknowledge this in someway. Consider giving a donation to the charity below. All proceeds go towards supporting the NZ-based victims (survivors and support workers) involved with the tragedy.

Model Details
Data Source
The Whakaari/White Island topological data was sourced from https://www.opentopography.org/ using the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) Global dataset.
Tools Used
Paint.Net; Inkscape; QGISDesktop, Fusion360, PrusaSlicer
Method
Relief data was selected and exported from OpenTopography.org and imported QGIS Deskop. A greyscale heightmap was generated and exported as a png. This png was tweaked in Paint.Net and then converted to a 3mf using https://imagetostl.com/
The raw topographic 3mf mesh was then combined with other metadata and artwork (converted to SVG using InkScape) to create the token which was exported as a final mesh (the 3mf files inlcuded with this model) into PrusaSlicer which was used to generate and tweak the final gcode (The gcode files included with this model).
Tips
The QR code version of the model is very tricky to print due to the low surface area portions of the first layer when filling in the QR code. You must have your Z axis tuned very well and a very clean print bed. The magnet version is much more forgiving.
If you don't have a 0.25mm nozzle I have included gcode files for 0.4mm nozzles as well.
This would probably print really well on an resin based printer also.
