Cerro Ballena Fossils: Digital Interface

3D Model

This 3D digital rendering of Miocene marine mammals found by Dr. Pyenson and his team at Cerro Ballena, Chile exemplifies the capability of modern paleontologists to use scanning technology and photogrammetry to make their discoveries more accessible worldwide. Annotations mark features of the fossils significant to the researchers in determining the fossilized organisms’ cause of death. (Group D: Jacob, Juan, Edoardo)
