Japanese developer Hidenori Watanave has mapped eyewitness reports of the prepare on on a 3D interactive map of Oahu isle inward Hawaii. The 1941 Project allows you lot to read testimony of the prepare on on Pearl Harbor from actual eyewitnesses of the attack, every bit documented inward Katrina Luksovsky's book, 'Ford Island Dec 7, 1941'.
The map was created using the Cesium WebGL virtual public library. The 1941 Project too includes links to Hidenori Watanave's other 3d mapping projects. These include the Hiroshima Archive, a 3d map of eyewitness accounts of the Hiroshima nuclear bomb, the Nagasaki Archive, eyewitness accounts of the bombing of Nagasaki, in addition to the Battle of Okinawa, eyewitness accounts of the 1945 Battle of Okinawa.
