OMHC WORKSHOP ON 3D PHOTOGRAMMETRY- SATURDAY OCTOBER 17TH, 2026

3D Photogrammetry Workshop: Underwater Surveying In The Digital Age

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a 3D Model is worth a thousand pictures!

Kayla will cover the complete ABC’s of underwater 3D Photogrammetry and how it is being applied to historic shipwrecks.
