Rebuild your AO

Your location, rebuilt from your images.

The working example: ANP Hill, Now Zad, 2008 to 2009, rebuilt from Marines' own photographs and video.

A premium, specialized historical reconstruction service.

I reconstruct forward operating bases, combat outposts, compounds, towns, villages, streets and areas of operations when sufficient usable source material exists.

How it works

Four steps. You approve each one.

  1. 1

    Private submission

    You describe the place and upload photographs, video and maps. Nothing is public.

  2. 2

    Review

    Every image is checked for what it shows, where it was taken from, and how it overlaps with the others.

  3. 3

    Plan and prototype

    You receive a written plan of what can be rebuilt, and a limited 3D proof of concept when technically feasible.

  4. 4

    Reconstruction

    A larger build follows a written agreement: scope, milestones and delivery terms, agreed before work begins.

Source material

What makes photographs usable.

A place can be rebuilt where the same ground was photographed from more than one spot. Scope follows the images, not the other way around.

Overlap

Several pictures of the same wall, post or street from different positions.

Video

Walking or panning video is valuable: every frame overlaps the next.

Coverage

Wide views that show how positions sat in relation to each other.

Maps and references

Sketches, period maps or imagery you hold the rights to share.

Dates and names

Roughly when each picture was taken, and who can say what it shows.

Any camera

Point-and-shoot stills, camcorder tape and phone video can all be reviewed.

What you receive

A place you can walk.

  • Like the ANP Hill example: a reconstruction you open in a browser, on a phone or a computer
  • Parts built from your images and parts that are AI-made are labelled
  • Exact deliverables are set in your written scope

What it is not

Honest limits.

  • Not a survey, and not exact to the inch
  • Not a complete town because photographs of it exist
  • Areas no image covers are left out or shown as labelled gaps
  • AI-made areas are illustrative

Your material

Private by default.

You never have to expose personal photographs or deployment records to the public to have a place rebuilt.

Private storage

Uploads are stored privately and are never displayed on this site.

Reconstruction permission

You allow your material to be used to assess and build your reconstruction.

Publication permission

Separate and optional. Without it, nothing made from your material is published.

Not accepted

Classified, restricted or unlawfully disclosed material.

Kickstarter coming soon

Now Zad Rebuilt.

A separate project from the reconstruction service: expanding the existing Now Zad reconstruction beyond ANP Hill, wherever surviving photographs and video support it. There is no campaign link yet.
