麻豆直播 TUTORIALS
FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE SURVEY
KoboToolbox | QGIS | LibreCAD | Photogrammetry
麻豆直播 and its partners have developed a series of tutorials and training modules aimed to help cultural heritage specialists perform surveys and condition assessments through open source tools and software, including QGIS, KoboToolbox, LibreCAD, and RealityCapture.
These modules provide step-by-step tutorials on how to download, install, and effectively use applications and software during data collection, analysis, and output.
SITE DOCUMENTATION
KoboToolbox & KoboCollect
KoBoToolbox is a free and open source software package for location and descriptive data collection. Information can be collected at heritage sites through tablets and phones using the KoBoCollect app or through the web browser interface, even when those devices are offline. Location and descriptive data recorded in the field can then be synched up with GIS software once an internet connection has been reestablished.
MAPPING ACTIVITIES
QGIS
QGIS is a free and open source Geographic Information System (GIS), or geodatabase, licensed under the GNU General Public License. QGIS runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OSX, Windows and Android and supports numerous vector, raster, and database formats and functionalities. 听Download QGIS here:听.

DETAILED DOCUMENTATION
LibreCAD
听is a free Open Source computer-aided design (CAD) application for 2D design. LibreCAD works for Windows, Apple and Linux operating systems. Most of the interface and concepts are analogous to AutoCAD, making it easier to use for users with experience of this type of commercial CAD application.听 are free from a large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers.
3D MODELLING
Photogrammetry Using Agisoft Metashape
听is a stand-alone software product that performs photogrammetric processing of digital images and generates 3D spatial data to be used in GIS applications, cultural heritage documentation, and visual effects production as well as for indirect measurements of objects of various scales. This software provides a platform for cultural heritage specialists to create virtual reality scenes, textured 3D meshes, orthographic projections, geo-referenced maps and much more from images and/or laser scans completely automatically.
