This project addresses the heritage sector\u2019s need for access to advanced imaging techniques and aims to bridge the regional disparity in available facilities. <\/p>\n
The Centre for Digital Modelling and Analysis, for Conservation and Heritage (D-MACH) will be established as a single comprehensive facility providing conservation and heritage science researchers access to a suite of recording, modelling and imaging tools for the morphological and elemental analysis of heritage objects. <\/p>\n
D-MACH aims to enhance access to these cutting-edge imaging techniques by offering resources to analysing heritage objects and collections at various scales, from microscopic to macroscopic. This facility will foster collaboration and innovation across sectors promoting the preservation and understanding of heritage through scientific methods. <\/p>\n
This project aims to provide heritage science and conservation researchers with access to state-of-the-art technologies such as computed x-ray tomography, laser-scanning, photogrammetry, structured light scanning and hyperspectral imaging. These tools will enable detailed 3D modelling, chemical composition analysis and comprehensive artefact examination, enhancing understanding of heritage materials, their manufacture and conservation needs.<\/p>
