In 1901, the stern-wheeler A J. Goddard was caught in a storm on Lake Laberge in Canada's Yukon Territory and sank. It lay lost in those frigid depths until underwater archaeologists located it in 2008. The Goddard was a significant find-the cold, oxygen-starved environment meant textiles and even paper might be intact, a valuable record of the Klondike Gold Rush. Standard procedure for mapping such a wreck used to involve fiberglass tape and sketches on Mylar, a tedious process fraught with error-highly accurate surveys could take years.
