Caption

A digital 3D image of the sunken “Tonoas dock boat” in Chuuk Lagoon was created through 3D photogrammetry implemented by Kotaro Yamafune in 2019. Similar images will be created for several underwater sites related to World War II to document the “natural heritage,” or the flora and fauna, for future management and preservation.
