Host: Realsim

Project Title: 3D simulation of Ireland 'Ancient East' marine environment

Project Description: RealSim will build an interactive 3d simulation of Irelands 'Ancient East' seabed and adjacent coastline stretching from Carlingford Lough to Waterford Harbour. The simulated environment will be populated with some of the world's oldest lighthouses and numerous shipwrecks from WWI. The projects intention is to bring awareness to Ireland's rich marine heritage.
