Underwater photogrammetry is a non-invasive documentation technique that uses overlapping photographs to create accurate three-dimensional models of submerged archaeological sites, artifacts, and landscapes. By capturing detailed spatial data, photogrammetry allows researchers to record sites with a high degree of precision while minimizing disturbance to fragile underwater environments. The resulting digital models serve as permanent records that can be studied, monitored, and shared long after a site has deteriorated due to natural processes or human activity. As a result, underwater photogrammetry plays a vital role in preserving cultural heritage, supporting conservation efforts, and increasing public access to underwater archaeological resources.
Once you click on the model you want to view, it will take a moment to load the model. When the model is done loading, a small hand will gesture that you can now move the model around. Left click and move the mouse around to rotate the model. Right click to move the wreck. Use the middle scroll on the mouse to zoom in and out.
