Ice Dive 3D Photogrammetry 2022 on Lake Minnetonka Event Photos
During the ice dive, the main objective was to document and practice the new process of 3D Photogrammetry on the Como Streetcar Boat on Lake Minnetonka.
This was also used to practice shooting 3D video photogrammetry to use for a much larger project in the future. Please see the Project Schedule and or Project Archive for more information.
Please check out the underwater video taken by Wim Wickle by clciking on the link below. Thank you Wim!!

Here is the final result of the time lapse photography taken by Andrew Goodman and processed by Ken Merryman
Thank you to all that helped make this project happen. It take a lot of helping hands to set up the equipment to do this type of project on top of the ice. We appreciate that all of you helped produce another great project result for the GLSPS.
Hope you will enjoy the videos and 3D Animation of the Como Street Car Boat.
