Heritage and Archaeology
Solutions in remnants preservation and identification
Virtual and Augmented Reality
From rediscovery to projection
The advance that technology has achieved will allow better identification of objects without direct contact, whether in terrestrial or aquatic environments, and simultaneously draw reliable conclusions about the artefacts found:
- Detection with Georadar or sonar
- Localisation with GNSS receiver or Total Station
- Terrestrial Laser Scanner Characterisation
- 3D modelling with adapted software
Currently
Traditional survey methods have long been used to locate archaeological finds
This approach is beginning to be improved with the emergence of increasingly subsurface-defining technologies
Heritage and Archaeology
What will it be like in the Future?
New experience
The developments we are witnessing in the area of Archaeology are factors that add a new study experience to expeditions to remote places on the planet and to the inventorying, cataloguing and separation of the specimens that best reflect a find of this nature
Scan
The digitisation of a large collection, but also of isolated and dispersed objects can make a major contribution to rewriting the history of a region, village or artefact
Virtual and Augmented Reality
Not only to make information much more accessible and clear in museums or other cultural formats, Virtual and Augmented Reality will help in the interpretation and better understanding of the location of ancient structures and their use by the people who populated a certain region, which will help in a much more appealing illustration of that circumstance
Digital Environments
(3D Archaeology)
Restoring historical infrastructures, completing archaeological elements and converting real images into virtual ones or using two realities simultaneously are solutions that digital environments and new technologies bring to the world of Archaeology
