The
junior research group UrbanHistory4D hosted the workshop „Research and
Education in Urban History in the Age of Digital Libraries“ under the patronage
of CIPA on 10-11 October 2019 in Dresden. Organized by Florian
Niebling
(Würzburg), Heike
Messemer
(Würzburg) and Sander
Münster
(Dresden) it was a joint international event of the University of Würzburg and
the Technical University Dresden. The workshop took place at the Deutsche
Hygiene-Museum in Dresden and was co-located with the Time Machine Conference.
Collections
of images, film and visual media in general were the focal point of the
projects presented in the first session, chaired by Florian Niebling, project
manager of UrbanHistory4D. The presentations showed the varied bandwidth of
research questions connected to media repositories.
Seyran
Khademi (TU
Delft) and Ronald
Siebes (Vrije
Universiteit Amsterdam) introduced ArchiMediaL, a collaborative project of
architectural historians and computer scientists, researching on the automatic
recognition of architectural and urban forms in visual digital media.
The
joint presentation of Francesca
Condorelli
(Politecnico di Torino) and Ferdinand
Maiwald (TU
Dresden, UrbanHistory4D) clearly showed a productive collaboration between the
two scholars, bringing together different approaches of photogrammetric methods
in the context of image and film archives.
A new
concept of a critical digital model for the study of unbuilt architecture was
introduced by Fabrizio
I. Apollonio
(Università di Bologna). He argued that via an objective reconstruction of
two-dimensional reference drawings as visual part of a 3D model, the latter can
show hypotheses in a less subjective way than with conventional methods.
Jonas
Bruschke
(Universität Würzburg, UrbanHistory4D) showed how a user study was created and
realized to find out the most suitable visualization methods in regard to
visualize characteristics of collections of historical photographs.
In
the second part of the workshop, chaired by Mathias Hofman (TU Dresden),
project manager of UrbanHistory4D, especially projects aiming at research on
specific urban contexts were in the focus.
So Julia
Noordegraaf
(Universiteit van Amsterdam) offered insight into the Amsterdam Time Machine.
Their aim is to provide a GIS of the 19th and early 20th
century of the city of Amsterdam. The Houses of different centuries are
automatically 3D reconstructed using the shapes of the parcels of land and the
height of the buildings to form schematic 3D models. In combination with
information on the functions of the houses it is possible to trace the past of
cultural centres in Amsterdam.
Stemming
from the Venice Time Machine, Andrea
Giordano
(Università degli Studi di Padova) presented the further development of the
project now focusing on visualizing cities. Aimed at providing interactive,
semantic 3D models of urban structures, they use the still quite new method of
HistoricBIM (Building Information Modeling).
Piotr
Kuroczyński (Hochschule
Mainz) focused on the data management in and documentation of 3D projects of
historical architecture, exemplified in a project for the state exhibition in
Mainz in 2020/2021. It aims at the digital 3D reconstruction of the cities of
Worms, Mainz and Speyer in the time of 800 A.D. and 1200 A.D. and presenting
them in an adequate way to the public, taking into account to inform the public
about uncertainties in the underlying data and the resulting visualizations.
A
user study was presented by Cindy
Kröber (TU
Dresden, UrbanHistory4D), offering a deep insight in how potential users can be
involved to develop a digital research tool for (art) historians. The
functionalities and usability of the 4D Browser created by the junior research
group UrbanHistory4D was examined by participants of the study, providing
valuable input to enlarge and improve the functions of the 4D Browser.
The
audience, coming from all over Europe, was passionate about the topics of the
workshop as the discussions after the presentations clearly showed. The
intimate atmosphere – in comparison to the large hall of the Time Machine
Conference upstairs in the same building – proved to be the perfect setting to
exchange views on how to deal with digital projects in the context of cultural
heritage and to create innovative ideas, enriching the topic of the workshop.
