摘要

This paper, in the frame of the Tectonic project (TEchnological Consortium TO develop sustaiNabIlity of underwater Cultural heritage), presents recent results obtained from the work on the shipwreck of the 19th Century schooner Emma, one of the selected submerged archaeological pilot sites. The wreck of Emma is located in Chubut province, Patagonia, Argentina. The main task consisted of the development of a 3D photogrammetric model to be integrated into a virtual reality (VR) end product. The technique employed in the process is described, noting the necessary adjustments required for its application in an underwater environment. Finally, the potential of this type of technique is discussed as a means of promoting tourism as well as underwater heritage management and protection, particularly important in the context of the characteristics of the remote Patagonian region.
