3D models

Explore penguin colonies in 3D

Drones are making penguin census work far more accessible. Oceanites started using UAVs in 2022 to quantify penguin populations and has been building a library of publicly accessible 3D imagery. Expedition guides, scientists and the public can use these models to better understand changes on the Antarctic Peninsula.

Hosting of 3D models is kindly provided by NIRA.
