South West Coast Path National Trail

The VISTA AR project is helping the South West Coast Path Association by developing advanced digital tools such as text analytics to analyse the experience of Coast Path walkers. The focus will be on Slapton Sands in South Devon, which was also the site of D-Day landing practices. At this site, the VISTA team aim to show the impact of climate change on the landscape through before and after images seen though a VR headset.
