GLTF / GLB Export

Kirra exports surfaces and analysis results to GLB (binary GLTF) format for use in 3D viewers, Blender, and other mesh tools.

Screenshot coming soon

How to Export

  1. Click File > Export
  2. Select GLB from the format list
  3. Choose the surface(s) to export
  4. The .glb file is downloaded

What Gets Exported

Surface Type Export Content
Analysis surfaces Mesh geometry with baked shader texture and UV coordinates
Regular surfaces Mesh geometry with elevation-based vertex colours

Analysis Surface Persistence

The GLB format is used internally by Kirra to persist blast analysis results (particularly from the Blair Heavy CPU model) to IndexedDB. This prevents browser crashes on page reload for heavy computation results – the mesh is saved as a GLB blob and restored directly without re-running the analysis.
