Titanic wreckage to be raised digitally by new 3D map
...But now researchers believe they will be able to raise the Titanic - digitally - after amazing High Definition images were beamed back from its final resting place.
Images originally designed to give scientists an insight into how long it takes for wrecks to disintegrate are to be turned into a 3D map of the wreckage.
It will mean people could one day be able to take a 3D tour of the shipwreck.
Using state-of-the art HD robotic cameras and sonar, scientists have been able to take the clearest pictures yet of the ship.
And they were amazed to find it is far better preserved than was previously thought, despite nearly a century underwater....
