SeaView: Google Street View for the Sea

Art • February 2012 • Views: 2,155

New service called the Catlin SeaView Survey is planning to do for the ocean what Google Street View has done for land. Using a special camera, the joint venture between the University of Queensland, Google, and insurance firm Catlin Group will use a specially designed underwater camera to capture interactive 360-degree panoramic photographs. The purpose will be to carry out one of the most intensive studies of reefs ever, starting with Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. It’ll go into full swing starting in September, but some sample imagery is already viewable over at the SeaView website.

Very cool. Thanks for posting.

BTW, I left a comment on your other (DOJ) page about maybe trying to post at different times. I don't think you ever saw it.

Happy to share that one. Petapixel is a place I lurk nearly every day.

Nah, I don't try too hard. It's like picking hit movies or music. You never really know. I think in the case of the Patriot act excesses, there is a limited reluctance to criticize this administration in an election year when the opposition is in the sad & scary state it is in. Understandably so.

Once Obama is re elected I'd love to see some pushback on certain Patriot Act provisions.

Thanks again for that code BTW. It looks way better. I bet I use that again before November.

I've been extremely disappointed with him over that; more so than for anything else. Realpolitik considerations aside, how do you justify something like that to your own kids? I've often wondered how/if he handles that, especially with Malia since she's old enough to notice & understand.

Yes, the state of the opposition is definitely sad & scary. I hope & pray there are enough sensible American voters to keep the country on track. President Obama is far from perfect, but even on his worst day I'd choose him over the others.
