You’ve got to hand it to Google, they are truly ambitious with their projects. Google Street view has been one such idea of theirs, that has managed to encompass the entire world, as no street has been left unchecked in their quest to cover the globe.
The Catlin Seaview Survey, a collaboration between Google, the University of Queensland, and the Caitlin Group is a pioneering project which will carry out the first comprehensive survey of the Great Barrier Reef, with 360-degree images from the underwater experiment to be made available online.
Eventually, there will be around 50,000 panoramas available from the survey through Google, and the project will have its own YouTube channel and the ability to broadcast Google+ Hangouts via livestream from the ocean floor.
