Description
This is from a Tandem Skydive with NZONE, Queenstown, NZ. Time to print your own souvenir!
The topo map part of this comes from the LINZ 8m data, with the Tandem jump pair derived from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4169041.
Scale is 1:150000, which means for a 15,000' jump height, the length of a rod to hold up the jumpers at this scale is just on 30mm - conveniently the length of a sewing pin.
The embossed logo has been moved to the actual jump point in the stl. This was an update after I'd started the original print run, so the print image looks slightly different to the stl. Also added a version without the logo.

Notes:
No support required for the main topo map, but I recommend printing it on its side rather than flat to get better resolution.
You WILL require support for the tandem jump figures.Rod for figures
I found heating the point of a sewing pin makes it easy to anchor into the base, while a dab of glue at the top is required to affix the jump figures.
