Autodesk and the NPS are creating a virtual tour of the USS Arizona

Have you ever wondered what the USS Arizona battleship would look like if it were raised from the deep? For the past year, the National Park Service has collaborated with Autodesk and other partners to use sonar, photo imaging, and other technology to survey and create a 3-D model of the USS Arizona in its current state on the bottom of Pearl Harbor. Preliminary 3-D printings were showcased Monday, along with interactive 3-D maps and printings of artifacts found on the sea floor. The project is meant to educate people about the importance of the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor.
