The enhancement of Underwater Cultural Heritage Assets using Augmented Realit...University of Piraeus
Τhe development in the fields of Underwater Cultural Heritage (UCH) management and Maritime Archaeology, yields an interdisciplinary and creative academic framework, such as the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) sector that has been proved to build intelligent systems and applications. However, the ways to fully make use of these technologies are still being explored, as their potential have not been exploited yet. Underwater archaeological sites, semi (/or fully) submerged settlements, ancient ports and shipwrecks, unlike land sites, are not accessible to public due to their special (sub) marine environment and depth. In this paper, an innovative research idea of using Augmented Reality (AR) for maintaining the memory and the information of underwater archaeological sites, is presented. Although the “artificial” visual documentation cannot replace the authentic values of the underwater tangible heritage, the AR technology can contribute to the protection of the intangible properties and the conquered knowledge of the past of a place. This research work will focus, among other case studies, on the (semi) submerged fortifications and their contiguous contents of the acropolis of Halai in east Lokris, Greece. Hence, along with the climate change that may lead more antiquities covered by water during the following years, the advances in the communication field and the up-coming 5G and cloud technologies will make the idea fully applicable, contributing to the enhancement of the coastal and the underwater archaeological remains.

Generating three dimensional photo-realistic model of archaeological monument...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Stimulated by the growing demand for three-dimensional (3D) photo-realistic model of archaeological monument, people are looking
for efficient and more precise methods to generate them. However, a single method is not yet available to give adequate results in all
situations, especially high geometric accuracy, automation, photorealism as well as flexibility and efficiency. This paper describes the
method for generating 3D photo realistic model of Bukit Batu Pahat shrine by the means of multi-sensors data integration. Global
Positioning System (GPS), Total Station and terrestrial laser scanner (Leica ScanStation C10) were used to record spatial data of the
shrine. Nevertheless, due to the low quality of the coloured point cloud captured by the scanner, a digital camera, Nikon D300s was
used to capture photos of the shrine for surface texturing purpose. A photo realistic 3D model with high geometric accuracy of the
shrine was generated through spatial and image data integration. A feature mapping accuracy and geometric mapping accuracy was
conducted to analyse the quality of the 3D photo-realistic model of the monument. Based on the results obtained, the integration of
ScanStation C10 and images data is capable of providing a 3D photo-realistic model of Bukit Batu Pahat shrine where feature
mapping accuracy showed that the model was 90.56 percent similar with the real object. Additionally, the geometrical accuracy of the
model generated by ScanStation C10 data was very convincing which was ±4 millimetres. In summary, the goal of this research has
successfully achieved where a 3D photo- realistic model of Bukit Batu Pahat shrine with good geometry was generated through multisensors
data integration.
Keywords: archaeological monument, terrestrial laser scanner, digital photo, 3D photo-realistic model

Talk titled 'User-centred and Participatory Cartography'
Interest in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) has been part of Geographical Information Science (GIScience) and cartography for a long time. Even before the term Geographical Information System (GIS) was invented (Tomlinson, 1967), researchers of “Man Machine Interaction” at MIT where utilising the display capabilities of the latest generation of computers to manipulate oceanic geographical information (Pivar at al., 1963). From this early start, HCI became an integral part of Cartography and GIScience research agendas. Interest focused on expert cartographers and their work in the 1960s and 1970s, and moved to wider range of specialised users in the 1980s and 1990s. This followed the spread of geographic technologies to wider audiences, culminating with the ‘Cambrian Explosion’ of maps on the internet. More recently, with the increased abilities of members of the public to create and share information, cartography became available to many, sometimes under the guise of ‘neogeography’. The talk with cover the evolution of HCI research in Cartography, focusing on participatory GIS and mapping, and demonstrating the importance of user centred design in the sharing of maps within this domain. It ends with examples of citizen science and how cartography play a role within it.
