Bust of Queen Victoria above entrance to Macquarie lighthouse, Vaucluse (digital model)

To celebrate the 200th anniversary of Macquarie Lightstation on 30 November 2018, the Harbour Trust partnered with Macquarie University to create bespoke 3D models that capture the grandeur of Australia’s original navigational light source. Macquarie University, whose name and coat of arms pay tribute to the historic site, used drone and ground footage together with terrestrial laser scanning and Pedestal 3D’s educational software platform, to construct detailed, interactive models of Macquarie Lightstation.
