Google offers a camel’s eye view of Liwa Oasis

ABU DHABI // Most images for Google Street View are collected with a car, but for the first time, the task was given to an animal – a 10-year-old camel named Raffia.

The images, now available online, show scenery from Liwa including dunes, the oasis, other camels and Raffia’s footprints and shadow.

The story of the final piece of the Louvre Abu Dhabi’s great puzzle

The computer software that is so essential to building the Louvre Abu Dhabi includes a virtual reconstruction, which shows all 85 of the supersized elements that will create the museum’s dome.

As each of the huge steel frames is lowered into place, its equivalent part on the screen changes colour.

It was a December morning last year when the first of those pieces turned from red to green. Barely nine months later, the virtual dome has only a single red-lit piece remaining.

On a humid morning in the real world, it dangles just inches off the ground from a mobile crane parked a few metres from the canopy.

Major milestone reached in Louvre Abu Dhabi construction

ABU DHABI // Construction of the Louvre Abu Dhabi museum has reached a major milestone with the installation of the final piece of a 7,000-tonne dome.

The puzzle-shaped dome – the museum’s most prominent feature – is made up of 85 large steel parts, each weighing up to 70 tonnes.

Although the dome sits on 120 temporary support towers, once they are removed it will rest on four permanent pillars.

The dome will be part of the much-heralded ‘rain of light’ effect in the museum, with star-shaped aluminium inserts.

Ali Al Hammadi, chief executive officer at the Tourism Development & Investment Company, said work was progressing as planned.

“The execution of the design is very complex and one that is unprecedented in the architectural world,” he said.

So far, the construction of all the museum galleries has been completed structurally, along with the concrete work for the museum’s basement levels.

DUBAI TO OFFER 25,000 MORE HOTEL ROOMS BY 2016

Dubai has seen an exponential growth in 3 and 4 stars hotels in the recent past due to a number of incentives by the Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DCTCM).

Eissam Kazim, chief executive of DCTCM, said that there is a need of cheaper accommodation in Dubai but not at the altar of low standards. He forecasted that by 2016 an additional 25,000 rooms will be in place and by 2020 Dubai is targeting 160,000 rooms.
Under Dubai Tourism Vision 2020, Dubai plans to welcome 20 million visitors in 2020 compared to 10 million in 2012. This calls for more rooms.
Kazim reiterated that the Emirate was not only targeting increased amount of visitors but also maintaining the high standards the country is well known for. This cuts across the board from five star, three star or guest house.
