3D CORAL MODELS
The Hydrous has been collecting 3D models of coral colonies since 2014 through non-destructive underwater techniques like photogrammetry as well as in collaboration with partners like the Smithsonian Institution. These models can be used for scientific measurements, extended reality (XR) experiences, turned into a physical model through 3D printing, and more!
Photospheres
Organizations including The Hydrous have been collecting underwater photospheres (360-degree images) and uploading them for people to explore from anywhere. Check out our collection on Google Street View and Google Arts & Culture. And more from The Ocean Agency and Underwater Earth here.
