Beskrivelse
The promise and premise of 3D photogrammetric field recording is currently out of alignment with archaeological practice. The reality-proximate, photorealistic, and geometrically accurate representation of excavation situations advanced by technologies such as Structure From Motion, has the potential to strengthen the post-excavation interpretation process, as it becomes increasingly easy to share the observed archaeology with other researchers. However, the spatial representation is paradoxically lacking in its ability to convey archaeological interpretation, as existing solutions usually only provide surface geometry and texture, and are limited to proprietary desktop solutions. The advent of HTML5 and WebGL means that JavaScript enabled browsers may interactively render and manipulate 3D content client-side.This paper demonstrates how a web-based 3D platform is able to facilitate the collaborative exchange of 3D excavation content almost instantaneously. The platform is based on a philosophy of integrating all spatial and attribute data into one common data model, effectively storing all geometry as Well Known Text in an Open Source Data Management System. Focusing particularly on how we may use custom algorithms to enhance the semantic value of 3D models by segmenting the geometry, the paper demonstrates a framework for interactive 3D models, which includes attributed classification correlated with traditional raster, vector and textual data.Rather than enforcing new standards for 3D content, the paper seeks to emphasize the focus on developing tools for analysis and management of 3D content as well as building infrastructures for the purpose of cross-disciplinary collaboration, research and knowledge exchange.| Periode | 16 mar. 2017 |
