“…Moreover, a high level of expertise and expensive hard-and software is required. By contrast, recent developments in the area of computer vision show great potential for fast, flexible and detailed documentation of heritage, without specialised and expensive instruments (Simpson et al 2004;Sanz et al 2010;Doneus et al 2011;Verhoeven 2011). The aim of this paper is to assess the potential of a recently developed computer visionbased package, PhotsoScan (AgiSoft LLC), to document the more complex archaeological monument types of the Russian Altai (i.e.…”

“…Other research activities that were born neither within the IndianaMAS nor within the 3D Pitoti projects tend to address only some of the aspects related with rock art, but lack an integrated vision and do not provide any integrated framework. For example, Sanz et al describe a method for obtaining 3D digital models of petroglyphs of different sizes and characteristics, with tests carried out in Galicia, Spain; Zhu et al introduce a distance measure and algorithms that allow efficient and effective data mining of large collections of rock art DOs; and Takaki et al propose a method to characterize shapes of the petroglyphs in Central Asia and properties of their groups by means of statistical values of simple quantities, such as the numbers of animals and men, the numbers of animal species, and the ratio of the right‐oriented to the left‐oriented animals (or men). These papers, as well as the DStretch tool, http://www.dstretch.com/, face the petroglyphs recognition and classification problems, but neglect their storage into a repository supporting semantic queries and accessible from the web.…”

Agent‐oriented and ontology‐driven digital libraries: the IndianaMAS experience

This paper describes IndianaMAS, a multiagent system able to automatically classify and manage images, sketches, and multilingual documents in a cultural heritage domain. The latter has been formalized by means of an ontology, which enables the semantic integration of heterogeneous data from different sources, drives the agent communication with the internal and external environment, and provides an abstract and human- readable interface between the system and the user. IndianaMAS is able to expose to the world the classified data via a digital library. Modularity and reusability are the key engineering principles followed in the system design and implementation. We present the details of the IndianaMAS system and discuss how its archi- tecture can be generalized to create – with the minimal effort – systems addressing similar classification, storage, and management problems, but operating in different domains and driven by different ontologies. The concrete problems we faced and their solutions are described to share our lesson learned and, at the same time, to show the applicability and reusability of our modular approach based on ontologies, agents, and digital libraries

“…Regarding to focus role on photogrammetry process, (Huang & Zhongliang, 2007) proposed a method to assess focus measures according to focus measures' capability of distinguishing focused image blocks from defocused image blocks. In (Sanz, et al, 2010), some digital image correlation techniques for 3D modelling are briefly reported and discussed; that work describes in detail the low-cost photo-scanner methodology employed for the recording, modelling and virtual visualization of objects.…”

ABSTRACT:Digital documentation and high-quality 3D representation are always more requested in many disciplines and areas due to the large amount of technologies and data available for fast, detailed and quick documentation. This work aims to investigate the area of medium and small sized artefacts and presents a fast and low cost acquisition system that guarantees the creation of 3D models with an high level of detail, making the digitalization of cultural heritage a simply and fast procedure. The 3D models of the artefacts are created with the photogrammetric technique Structure From Motion that makes it possible to obtain, in addition to three-dimensional models, high-definition images for a deepened study and understanding of the artefacts. For the survey of small objects (only few centimetres) it is used a macro lens and the focus stacking, a photographic technique that consists in capturing a stack of images at different focus planes for each camera pose so that is possible to obtain a final image with a higher depth of field. The acquisition with focus stacking technique has been finally validated with an acquisition with laser triangulation scanner Minolta that demonstrates the validity compatible with the allowable error in relation to the expected precision.
