technology as it pertains to the 3D documentation of underwater archaeological and …

Artificial reefs have been deployed in France since 1968 with the principal objective of
enhancing success and continuity of artisanal fishing. Over 50% of the volume of reef …

In this paper we present a photogrammetry-based approach for deep-sea underwater
surveys conducted from a submarine and guided by knowledge-representation combined …

This chapter provides an overview of the rise of 3D technologies in the practice of maritime
archaeology and sets the scene for the following chapters in this volume. Evidence is …

This paper presents the results of an underwater photogrammetric survey of an intact
standing steel wreck with high vertical profiles from the seabed at 60 meters depth. The …

Virtual Reality is becoming a complete and original way to leverage the enormous potential
of the underwater cultural heritage world. In this paper, we illustrate how we used this tool …

In the Mediterranean Sea, shallow rocky reefs and the associated three-dimensional (3D)
structure support rich and abundant communities; they are therefore of functional …

Full-field optical morphology measurement methods are widely used in the shape
measurement of underwater targets. The existing models and calibration methods in air …

This chapter introduces several state of the art techniques that could help to make deep
underwater archaeological photogrammetric surveys easier, faster, more accurate, and to …

The fragility of organic artefacts in presence of water and their volumetric variation caused
by the marine life on or surrounding them dictate that their physical dimensions be …
