Crater Lake 3D Bathymetry & Videos for K12 Limnology

Crater Lake in the Classroom
Production Management / Web Site Development / Multimedia

This publicly-funded project (shoestring budget) was created for students K-12 grades to promote access to the vast learning opportunities available at Crater Lake National Park in Oregon, USA.  Inclement weather limits students access during the school year, so the scientists and staff partnered with Laura Rose Misaras to bring Crater Lake to the classroom via technology.
