Super Saturday

This morning we walked over to the University of Malta to have a presentation on using Agisoft Photoscan. This is the software we use to create 3D models and textures of objects from images. The presentation was given by John Wood, one of Timmy's good friends and dive buddies. He gave us some tips on how to get pictures that would work best for Photoscan. We also learned more about diving and got to see some pictures of John, Timmy, and the rest of their team diving some underwater wrecks. Very cool!

After the presentation we stopped at an Asian food store and got ingredients for lunch. Jane, Roslyn, and Wentao made some fantastic food! For the rest of the day we were free to do whatever we wanted. Roslyn and Amy went to the beach. Jane and Wentao stayed at the apartment to relax. Jeff and I went to the store to get some baking ingredients after working on our georeferencing script a bit. Apparently molasses is called black treacle here!

Today was a great chance to relax and enjoy some time together. Tomorrow we're planning on taking a trip to Gozo and then it'll be back to work for our last week!
