S. Kondō defined a birational period map between the moduli space of genus three curves and a moduli space of polarized K3 surfaces. In this paper we give a resolution of the period map, providing a surjective morphism from a suitable compactification of 3 to the Baily-Borel compactification of a six dimensional ball quotient.
