opportunity: Mass digitization and metadata enrichment of 3D
cultural heritage artefacts by automatic and user-based
metadata acquisition<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Applications are invited
for a four year fully-funded PhD studentship within EPSRC
Centre for Doctoral Training in Science and Engineering in
Arts, Heritage and Archaeology (SEAHA – <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.seaha-cdt.ac.uk">www.seaha-cdt.ac.uk</a>)
. The studentship comprises a one-year MRes based at UCL,
London, followed by three years PhD study at the University
of Brighton, in collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute
for Computer Graphics Research (Darmstadt, Germany) and the
Brighton Royal Pavilion and Museums. The project will look
at the state-of-the-art ‘conveyor belt’ approach to high
fidelity 3D digitization of complex cultural artefacts.
Effective management and exploration of collections depends
on the acquisition not just of the artefacts themselves, but
also of semantic metadata, providing annotation of, and
linkage between, acquired assets in the collection. This PhD
project aims to explore the potential for the application of
mass digitization technology in cultural heritage
organisations, and to develop tools and techniques for the
enrichment of collections with metadata by automatic and
user-based acquisition.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
