WHOI Articles and News Releases March 29, 2012WHOI Team Uses Advanced Imaging Data to Bring a New View of Titanic to the World Newly released images of the Titanic wreck site provide the first unrestricted view of the world's most notable maritime heritage site. The image mosaics are among more than 200 optical mosaics created by WHOI's Advanced Imaging and Visualization Laboratory. These new images add to the already unprecedented collection of images published in the April 2012 issue of National Geographic Magazine.

New Zealand’s Pink and White Terraces, natural formations created by a large geothermal system, were buried in sediment and covered over by Lake Rotomahana after the eruption of Mt. Tarawera in 1886.

At the center of this collaboration is cutting-edge technology: the Waitt Institute’s two newly built Hydroid REMUS 6000 Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), which can explore depths of up to 6000 meters, or 3.7 miles, below the ocean’s surface without a human crew or cables connecting them to a research vessel. With their multi-sensor platforms, the REMUS 6000s are capable of recording critical oceanographic data, photo-imaging deep-sea features, and producing detailed sonar maps of the ocean floor. » Visit Website REMUS on FacebookFollow the latest WHOI REMUS events on Facebook.Don't forget to like us! » Visit Website Last updated: November 30, 2012 | |||||||||||||
