MayaArch3D: Building a 3DWebGIS Documentation and Analysis System for Complex Archaeological Sites
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 80th Annual Meeting, San Francisco, CA (2015)
The MayaArch3D project is developing a new research tool that offers the possibility to combine 3D-Models and the functions of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) for the documentation and analysis of archaeological sites on one internet platform. This symposium will present the project goals, pipeline and results of this international, interdisciplinary project led by the German Archaeological Institute, and funded by the German Ministry of Education and Culture from 2012- July 2015. The first several papers present the technical pipeline: from data collection and post-processing, to data structuring and segmenting. Following papers will present the system architecture, system tools and demos of the online tool. Another set of papers presents the first archaeological use cases, and two discussants round up the session.
