Over the past two years a team from Autodesk, the U.S. National Park Service, and multiple partners worked in Pearl Harbor Hawaii at the  World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument and USS Arizona Memorial to undertake the first comprehensive survey of the ship in the latest technologies of reality capture. We used many methods to capture and digitally preserve and study the USS Arizona above and below the water including LiDAR above and below the water, photogrammetry, and multiple SONAR technologies. The data collected in point clouds and mesh models has been very complex but we have brought all the data together to assemble a complete and accurate 3D mesh model which will soon begin a complicated scaled 3D print.

You can see a quick YouTube video of the mesh in Autodesk Memento by Carahsoft.
