Issue 36 of Internet Archaeology has just opened with a great article on
visualising the multi-period site of 'Jarlshof' on Shetland.
*Jarlshof Lost and Found: Low altitude aerial photography and
computer-generated visualisation for the interpretation of the complex
settlement remains found at Jarlshof, Shetland* by Kieran Baxter
(University of Dundee)
http://intarch.ac.uk/journal/issue36/baxter_index.html
[doi:10.11141/ia.36.1]
The visualisation of the site (provided as a video) sets the reconstructed
elements within a computer-generated reproduction of the current day
environment, based low altitude aerial photographs. The article describes
and discusses the method and approach to gathering the structure and
surface texture information, as well as how photographic and cinematic
considerations were incorporated in order to tell the story of the site.
The article is *Open Access*. As a researcher funded by the Arts and
Humanities Research Council, the author was eligible to apply for the RCUK
Open Access funds available from his institution.
