The Victorian High country Huts Association is looking for some support in getting this project funded, if you're a Vic resident please consider voting. This is a project I'm currently involved in, the outcomes will allow many to not only plan their own visit but give many others an opportunity explore these buildings at any time.
Have any questions please let me know.
VICTORIAN RESIDENTS : WE NEED YOUR VOTE
The Huts Association has applied for a grant to fund a very exciting project, under the Victorian Government Volunteering Innovation Fund. We will only be successful if we are in the top 3 projects voted for. Please VOTE for us using the link below and SHARE this post to your friends, family and other pages.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
This project will digitally capture up to 20 of the iconic heritage listed huts of the High Country of Victoria.
We will use 3D modelling camera equipment and software to create 3D computer models of the huts, compatible with virtual reality goggles. The 3D models will be archived and published online so everyone can take virtual 3D tours and walk throughs with interpretive material attached (e.g. drone footage, videos, historic information).
The 3D models are a vital tool for conservation planning (i.e. creation of a permanent record, updated conditions assessments, scoping works, bushfire protection planning, costing and project planning) and allows virtual access for wider audiences, including those previously unable to experience the huts in person.
We anticipate the VHCHA members and volunteers will be able to get involved in this project, should we be successful. We will update everyone on how we fared.
PLEASE VOTE NOW AND SHARE. Thank you for your support.
