Mae’r cynnydd mawr mewn data wedi’i bell-synhwyro yn yr Alban yn cynnig cyfleoedd ac yn gosod her. Er bod map orthoffotograffig cyflawn o’r Alban ar gael ers rhai blynyddoedd bellach, mae sganio laser o’r awyr (ALS) yn ddarniog, er bod dyhead i’w helaethu neu ei gwblhau hyd yn oed. Mae hyn yn codi her ynghylch sut y bydd Historic Environment Scotland, fel corff arolygu cenedlaethol yr Alban, yn ymdrin â’r cynnydd cyflym mewn data wedi’i bell-synhwyro wrth ddiffinio ymagwedd at fapio cenedlaethol. Mae ymagweddau sefydledig at archwilio archaeolegol yn pwysleisio rhagchwilio yn y maes, wedi’i gefnogi gan ddata wedi’i bell-synhwyro, ond gwaith sy’n gofyn am dipyn o adnoddau yw hwn. Trafodir gwaith rhagarweiniol ar Ynys Arran, a elwir ar lafar gwlad yn ‘Scotland in Miniature’ (yr Alban ar raddfa fach), i ddatblygu mapio graddfa genedlaethol, gan gynnwys cyflwyno darganfyddiadau newydd, agweddau ar ddata aml-raddedig a dyhead i ddatblygu llifoedd gwaith wedi’u symleiddio sy’n rhoi’r pwyslais ar ddata wedi’i bell-synhwyro a chanfod gwrthrychau awtomataidd. Mae hyn yn gofyn am ddatblygu llifoedd gwaith newydd, ond hefyd am ailystyried agweddau ar arfer sefydledig. Established approaches to archaeological prospection emphasise field reconnaissance, supported by remote sensed data, but this is a relatively resource intensive operation. Preliminary work on the Island of Arran, which is colloquially known as ‘Scotland in Miniature’, to develop national-scaled mapping is discussed, including presentation of new discoveries, aspects of multi-scaled data and an aspiration to develop streamlined workflows that foreground remote sensed data and automated object detection. This is requiring development of new workflows, but also the renegotiation of aspects of established practice. The increasing availability of remotely sensed data in Scotland presents opportunities and challenges. While complete coverage of orthophotos have been available for a few years now, availability of Aerial Laser Scanning (ALS) is patchy, though there is an aspiration to greater or even complete coverage. This raises a challenge to how Historic Environment Scotland, as the national body of survey for Scotland, deals with the rapidly increasing remote sensed data in defining an approach to national mapping.

Ystyrir yma, felly, le’r Gymraeg fel cyfrwng sy’n bont rhwng ddoe, heddiw ac yfory wrth iddi fanteisio ar dechnoleg ddigidol. Canolbwyntia’r cyflwyniad hwn ar waith Comisiynydd y Gymraeg ym maes technoleg gwybodaeth a chyfieithu gan bwysleisio’r potensial sydd i wneud defnydd arloesol o dechnoleg yn y maes hwnnw. Rhoddir sylw penodol hefyd i gyfrifoldeb unigryw’r Comisiynydd i argymell ffurfiau safonol enwau lleoedd Cymru a’r modd y gall y gwaith hwnnw gyfrannu at warchod ein treftadaeth yn ogystal â bod yn allwedd i’w deall. Mae’r byd technoleg yn datblygu ar garlam ac yn sgil hyn daw cyfleoedd cyffrous i roi’r Gymraeg ar y map a sicrhau ei bod yn parhau’n gyfrwng perthnasol i siaradwyr Cymraeg heddiw ac yfory. Daw cyfleoedd gwerthfawr hefyd i ailymweld â hanes a threftadaeth ddiwylliannol Cymru gan ddefnyddio systemau technolegol nid yn unig fel modd o gyflwyno hanes, iaith a diwylliant i genedlaethau newydd, ond fel modd o ddiogelu’r elfennau hynny a chadw gwybodaeth werthfawr ar glawr, neu ar gwmwl! Ystyrir yma, felly, le’r Gymraeg fel cyfrwng sy’n bont rhwng ddoe, heddiw ac yfory wrth iddi fanteisio ar dechnoleg ddigidol. This presentation focuses on the work of the Welsh Language Commissioner in the fields of IT and translation, emphasising the potential to make innovative use of technology in that field. Particular attention is also given to the Commissioner's unique responsibility to recommend the standard forms of place-names in Wales and how that work can contribute to protecting our heritage as well as being a key to understanding that heritage. The world of IT is developing rapidly and as a result exciting opportunities arise to put the Welsh language on the map and to ensure that the language remains a relevant medium for Welsh speakers today and for future generations. There are also valuable opportunities to revisit the history and cultural heritage of Wales by using technological systems not only as a means of introducing history, language and culture to new generations, but as a means of safeguarding those elements and preserving valuable information. This presentation will therefore consider the role of the Welsh language as a medium and bridge between yesterday, today and tomorrow as we take advantage of digital technology.

Mae’r prosiect treftadaeth ddigidol cydweithiol Making Sense of Illustrated Handwritten Archives yn datblygu amgylchedd digidol uwch-dechnolegol cyfeillgar i’r defnyddiwr a fydd yn hwyluso gwaith haneswyr, biolegwyr a churaduron sydd â diddordeb mewn treftadaeth byd natur wedi’i digido a threftadaeth llawysgrifenedig ddarluniedig. Mae’r prosiect Making Sense yn rhoi sylw arbennig i archif Pwyllgor Byd Natur India’r Iseldiroedd, menter gasglu ar raddfa fawr a ariannwyd gan y brenin Isalmaenig Willem I. O 1820 hyd 1850 bu aelodau’r Pwyllgor yn gwneud teithiau helaeth drwy Ynysfor Indonesia, gan greu casgliad unigryw o ddogfennau llawysgrifenedig, sbesimenau a darluniau. Yn ogystal â bwrw golwg cyffredinol dros y prosiect, bydd fy narlith yn trafod y cyfleoedd, peryglon a goblygiadau ehangach sydd ynghlwm wrth gymhwyso system adnabod delweddau (geiriau) a thechnegau digidol eraill yng nghyd-destun casgliadau llawysgrifenedig darluniedig wedi’u digido. The collaborative digital heritage project Making Sense of Illustrated Handwritten Archives develops a user-friendly and technologically advanced digital environment which is meant to facilitate the work of historians, biologists and curators interested in digitized natural historical and other illustrated handwritten heritage. Core use case of the Making Sense project is the archive of the Committee of Natural History of the Netherlands Indies, a large scale collecting endeavour financed by the Dutch king Willem I. From 1820 to 1850, members of the Committee made extensive tours through the Indonesian Archipelago and brought together a unique set of handwritten documents, specimens and visuals. Next to a project overview, my lecture discusses opportunities, pitfalls, and wider implications which the application of an (word) image recognition system and other digital techniques in the context of digitized illustrated handwritten collections entail.

Mae Historic England, neu English Heritage fel yr oeddem bryd hynny, wedi bod yn gysylltiedig â’r cynadleddau Gorffennol Digidol ers y cychwyn cyntaf yn 2009. Mae llawer wedi newid ers hynny ac roeddwn i’n meddwl y byddai’n ddiddorol edrych yn ôl a thynnu sylw at rai o’r chwyldroadau mwyaf. Historic England, or English Heritage as we were back then, have been involved in the Digital Past conferences since their inception in 2009. A lot has changed since that time and I thought it would be interesting to look back and highlight some of the biggest revolutions.

Mae datblygiadau diweddar ym maes offer ymgysylltu digidol wedi creu amgylchedd grymus ar gyfer ail-ddehongli treftadaeth. O ymchwil hanesyddol mynediad agored i gasgliadau wedi’u digido amgueddfeydd ac archifdai, erbyn hyn mae gan ymchwilwyr, grwpiau cymunedol a sefydliadau treftadaeth doreth o adnoddau gwreiddiol, a oedd yn anodd eu cyrraedd gynt, y gallant eu cyrchu drwy wefannau, catalogau a safleoedd trydydd parti. Un newydd-ddyfodiad i’r farchnad brysur hon yw Yarn, llwyfan adrodd storïau digidol sy’n dwyn ynghyd gasgliadau amgueddfeydd ac archifdai ac archifau a deunyddiau hanesyddol y defnyddwyr eu hunain. Recent developments in digital engagement tools have created a dynamic environment for the reinterpretation of heritage. From open access historical research to digitised museum and archive collections, researchers, community groups and heritage organisations are now blessed with an abundance of previously hard-to-reach primary resources, accessible through websites, catalogues and third party sites. One relative newcomer in this busy marketplace is Yarn, a digital storytelling platform designed to bring the collections of museums and archives together with users’ own archives and historic materials.

Gwella strwythur a chwiliadwyedd gwybodaeth am dreftadaeth ddiwylliannol ddisymud ledled y byd yw nod y prosiect Treftadaeth Agored Gysylltiedig. Buom yn gweithio i gynnwys gwybodaeth wedi’i chyd-destunoli ar Wikipedia; delweddau newydd a hanesyddol ar Wikimedia Commons; a data strwythuredig ar Wikidata. Yn ystod y cyflwyniad byddwn ni’n siarad am rai o’r heriau a’r gwersi a ddysgwyd wrth brosesu casgliad unigryw o setiau ddata o 50 o wledydd, gweithio i ryddhau setiau data newydd, darganfod ffyrdd o gadw’r casgliad yn gyfoes, a chreu methodolegau i’w gwneud hi’n bosibl i roi’r data ar Wikidata ar ffurf safonedig a strwythuredig. Improving the structure and searchability of immovable cultural heritage information from around the world is what the Connected Open Heritage project has been trying to achieve. We have worked to include contextualized information on Wikipedia; new and historical images on Wikimedia Commons; and structured data on Wikidata. During the presentation we will talk about some of the challenges and lessons gathered while working with processing a world-unique collection of datasets from 50 countries, working to release new datasets, finding ways to keep it up-to-date, and creating the methodologies for the data to be added to Wikidata in a standardized and structured form.

Since its establishment in 1908, the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales has been recording archaeological and historic sites and monuments both spatially and cartographically. The role of the Commission both as a public archive of maps, and as a map producing body supplying map depictions of archaeological sites to the Ordnance Survey, is unique in Wales. In this presentation the wealth of cartographic and spatial material available to researchers within the Royal Commission’s archive will be revealed. The ways in which staff at the Commission utilise these resources to record, interpret and present the past will also be explored. The opportunities that members of the public have to access and use these resources will also be discussed. Finally, there will be an exploration of the potential offered by new and emerging technologies such as Augmented and Virtual Reality to depict sites and landscapes of the past.

Folcloristas de Panamá: Using a WhatsApp Group as a Crowdsourcing Platform for Preserving Knowledge of the Past Marino Jaén Espinosa: Director, PanamaTipico.com The ubiquity of smartphones has opened new opportunities for groups of people to exchange information in efficient ways. While not cutting-edge in technology, the resulting digital communities bring valuable contributions to heritage preservation in places without easy access to specialized crowd-sourcing platforms. One example of such communities is Folcloristas de Panamá, a WhatsApp group devoted to discussing a wide range of topics related to the past and the folklore of Panama. Even though it has not yet turned one year old, the community has had a significant impact on the cultural heritage community of Panama, as it has transcended the digital realm to become a formal association. This work is an analysis of the group’s origins, members’ profiles, typology of content shared, internal conflicts and autoregulation mechanisms. The main goal is to explain the success of the group as a crowdsourcing platform and to describe its impact in the real world, while encouraging a discussion about similarities and differences with comparable experiences elsewhere. This is the third study in a series about crowdsourcing in digital folklore communities in Panama. The first was about PanamaTipico.com, a cultural heritage website, presented at the 2014 Digital Presentation and Preservation of Cultural and Scientific Heritage International Conference, held in Bulgaria. The second paper was about Chepo Cultura y Tradición, a Facebook fan page dealing with the collective memory of a town, presented in 2016 at Towards Digital Folkloristics International Conference, held in Latvia (not yet published). Our work aims to understand the contribution of digital crowdsourcing communities to the preservation of the rich cultural heritage of Panama.

The Discovery and Documentation of the Newport Ship: Unlocking the Secrets of a Medieval Merchant Vessel Found in Wales Dr Toby Jones: Curator, Newport Medieval Ship Project In the summer of 2002, archaeologists discovered a remarkably well-preserved medieval merchant ship in the United Kingdom. Construction on the banks of the River Usk, in Newport, Wales, led to the chance find of the unique vessel, which dates to around AD 1450. The large lapstrake-built trading ship and associated artefacts were carefully raised for further study and conservation. Nearly fifteen years of international research and meticulous conservation have helped to unlock the secrets of this historically significant find. The team has been at the forefront of using digital technology, including laser scanners, contact digitisers and CAD software, to document and model the vessel and artefacts. The vessel is thought to have been built in the Basque Country of northern Spain and archaeological evidence suggests strong trading links between Britain and the Iberian Peninsula. The analysis of the hull and numerous objects has provided insight into the technological innovation, forest management and trade patterns of the Atlantic-facing countries of Western Europe during the late-Medieval period. The vessel and finds are currently being conserved with the goal of reassembling the ship for permanent display within the city museum.
