Using 3D platform Sketchfab, researchers reconstruct an interactive model of the English king's burial site as he was found under a parking lot in Leicester.

Although the famous Old Man of the Mountain is gone, a new 3D model created by a Dartmouth College graduate student, allows users to explore it online.

The debut of the 3D model coincides with a virtual event on Wednesday, May 3 at 11 a.m. commemorating the 20th anniversary of the collapse.

Use Sketchfab to publish, share and embed interactive 3D files. Discover and download thousands of 3D models from games, cultural heritage, architecture, design and more.

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed many computational tools that can analyze and interpret images.

How are cities using 3D models? Local government and the private sector are increasingly using 3D city models to assist planning. An example is Virtual Brisbane.
