Dubai Islands

The Dubai Islands (The palm trees and The world) are artificial peninsulas constructed of sand dredged from the bottom of the Persian Gulf. The sand is sprayed by the dredging ships, which are guided by DGPS, onto the required area in a process known as rainbowing because of the arcs in the air when the sand is sprayed. There are three artificial landmasses looking like palm trees, there are also an archipelago of islands that are created to mimic the earth from above.
