On my recent trip to Bikini Atoll, I worked on a lot of photogrammetry on the Saratoga. I will have an upcoming post on the Island and also on all of the airplanes around the Sara (this one is going to be epic).
One of the projects was to build a model of the forward elevator shaft wall which is the main location point for entry into the wreck. The previous photos that people have used required a single photo which meant taking it from very far away and it had a lot of limitations.
I hope this new version will be helpful for anybody who is planning to do any penetration in the Sara.
The blog post provides additional details and I've included a copy of the of the diagram below. I've also provided this to Master Liveaboards in case they want to use it.
