Digital Teaching:
The course offers hands-on training in practical aspects of utilizing 3D modelling techniques for preserving and reconstructing cultural heritage. Students will gain experience learning the process of capturing 3D data and creation of 3d reconstructions. Best practices in data management, metadata documentation, and representation of 3D models online will also be covered. By the end of the course, students will have the practical foundation to create accurate digital representations, contributing to the preservation and interpretation of cultural heritage.
 
Exam description:
During the course, you will accomplish a series of tasks which are logically connected. You will be working on two case studies suggested by the teacher. The case studies include two objects for digital reconstruction. The final mark of the exam will be aggregated in the format of portfolio:
1)     Creation and presentation of the 3D-object from the case study 1 (30%)
2)     Creation and presentation of the 3D-object from the case study 2 (30%)
3)     Essay (40%)
 
Requirements for the computers:
You are asked to bring the laptops or work from stationary computers at home to process the 3D data. Tablet PCs or mobile devices won’t be supported due the course.
Remember: you have an option to borrow a laptop for education purposes at HRZ. Please inspect these opportunities beforehand.
 
Required IT knowledge for the course:
The course tasks are adjusted to the different levels of IT skills of the participants. Students without specific knowledge are welcomed as well for enrollment.
 
The accomplished 3D-objects can serve as a good contribution to your professional portfolio.
