Abstract

Abstract. The generation of high quality 3D models can be still very time-consuming and expensive, and the outcome of digital reconstructions is frequently provided in formats that are not interoperable, and therefore cannot be easily accessed. This challenge is even more crucial for complex architectures and large heritage sites, which involve a large amount of data to be acquired, managed and enriched by metadata. In this framework, the ongoing EU funded project INCEPTION – Inclusive Cultural Heritage in Europe through 3D semantic modelling proposes a workflow aimed at the achievements of efficient 3D digitization methods, post-processing tools for an enriched semantic modelling, web-based solutions and applications to ensure a wide access to experts and non-experts. In order to face these challenges and to start solving the issue of the large amount of captured data and time-consuming processes in the production of 3D digital models, an Optimized Data Acquisition Protocol (DAP) has been set up. The purpose is to guide the processes of digitization of cultural heritage, respecting needs, requirements and specificities of cultural assets.

Summary

Research framework

One of the main current challenges in the creation, management and use of digital models of cultural heritage concerns the dual need for high-quality 3D representations at an affordable cost, accessible and reusable. 1.2 The INCEPTION project The INCEPTION project main aim is focused on innovation in 3D modelling of cultural heritage through an inclusive approach for time-dynamic 3D reconstruction of heritage sites and on the possibility to create an inclusive understanding of European cultural identity and diversity by stimulating and facilitating collaborations across disciplines, technologies and sectors Within this overall structure, the project is divided into five main steps: setting up of a common framework and knowledge management; advancement into the integrated 3D data capturing methodology; semantic modelling for Cultural Heritage buildings in H-BIM environment; development of the INCEPTION platform; deployment and valorization through different on-site and off-site applications for a wide range of users. The “browsing and query interface” will be defined allowing contributions by researchers and experts that do not deal with 3D data, and enabling a wide and easy access to the data by citizens, non-expert users and public at large
