As part of its support for Cabox Aspiring Geopark, in September 2020 the federal and provincial government announced funding for Cabox VR, a virtual reality project begun under the EU-funded Drifting Apart project. The funds are to be used to develop the website NLinVR, which will provide an online platform to share 3D virtual reality images and videos of representative scenes across Newfoundland and Labrador. Of course in order to share the photos and videos, they must first be filmed using a 360-degree video camera.
