Brief Description of the Project

The project aims to research and promote the historical value and preservation of Hong Kong’s underwater heritage. Stage I of the project involves compiling an interactive underwater heritage database using existing databases and related information in order to show the locations of shipwrecks and other underwater heritage sites. The database is developed and integrated into the HKUHG website. This database will be updated as new heritage sites or additional information is found, and members of the public have been invited to contribute information via its discussion forum.
