Römerkastell Saalburg

In mid November 2019, our team at the Cultural Heritage Digitization Competence Center carried out 3D scanning at Römerkastell Saalburg. The aim of the project was to digitally document twenty artifacts dating back to the Roman period. The 3D scanning was achieved through photogrammetry, for a visualization true to scale, and color-calibrated in 3D.

 

Selected 3D objects from the scan project at Römerkastell Saalburg have been prepared for visualization in web-ready 3D-viewer, augmented reality (only for iOs devices) and in video animation.
