[...] I just posted a bit of information about the excavation as well as four of the panoramas on my blog. Be sure to check it out. I would make some major changes to the setup if I was going to do it [...]

Michael,

You are correct. The tripods with bell markers were used for mapping to create fixed points that were then used to accurately map in any artifacts found. The airfilled dome is the telephone booth and it is mostly for emergency communication when underwater. You can go in and talk and it works great except you sound like you just inhaled several helium balloons. Thanks for your comments!

Hello Drew,

really challenging work! I always thought of applying panoramas for underwater archaeological documentation on my own, but I left archaeology and professional diving 10 years ago and started working with panos seriously only in 2003.
Are the poles with the bell shaped tops reference points for measurements? And in the background of pano no. 2 I can see an airfilled (?) dome, meant for underwater direct communication? Pretty cool all in all!

Drew, wonderful work. This is my first experience seeing underwater interactive panos and you should be very proud of your results!
