Over the last several years, PIMS has been working to create detailed 3D models and reconstructions of coral reefs using photogrammetry. These models and photomosaics (2D satellite-style maps of reef surfaces) are incredible tools for monitoring reef health. Now, we will give you a taste of this exciting technology, for the very first time.In the newest edition of our monthly webinar series, PIMS Research Associate, Will Greene will take you through an overview of how we are using photogrammetry, as well as how it can help us protect and restore reefs in The Bahamas.
