Digital underwater monitoring takes high-precision scans from close-range underwater video-and photogrammetry and underwater laser scanning. The purpose is to perform digital structural analysis (FEA, hydrodynamic modelling) and survey (growth, species abundance) on digital twin models of the coral reef system. Challenges for digital twin models of reef systems are related to the complex form of reef formations and corals, visibility conditions underwater, and to the display of massive 3D point could models for non-experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"21.01.16 Demo: Underwater Monitoring Workflow\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/813463906?h=37c5cd86fb&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1816\" src=\"https:\/\/artificialreefdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/22.11.17-Poster-Promotionsausstellung-Weimar-1-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artificialreefdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/22.11.17-Poster-Promotionsausstellung-Weimar-1-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/artificialreefdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/22.11.17-Poster-Promotionsausstellung-Weimar-1-1-300x213.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Poster for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-weimar.de\/en\/university\/research-and-art\/young-researchers\/bauhaus-research-school\/events\/phd-exhibition\/\">Ph.D. Exhibition<\/a> at the Bauhaus-Universit\u00e4t Weimar for the &#8220;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-weimar.de\/de\/universitaet\/aktuell\/jaehrliche-veranstaltungen\/jaehrliche-veranstaltungen-2022\/lange-nacht-der-wissenschaften-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\">Long Night of the Sciences<\/a>&#8220;, November 2022.
