Bringing my account out of the Twitter coma to share one of our recent #DigitalHeritage projects - Preston Tower, a 15c tower house! Detailed #3D record includes #photogrammetry + #LaserScanning & the model is(of course!)up on @aocarchaeology @Sketchfab 👉skfb.ly/ovNWA

After a hoover with a Museum Vac, I then cleaned the drawing with a natural latex sponge. Really effective at removing surface dirt without abrading the paper support. 🧹🧽

More surface cleaning sooty drawings today - wish it was this speedy in real life…this is one of 80 that need some TLC! @HistEnvScot @welovehistory #hesarchives #paperconservation

Yesterday I delivered a workshop I developed on #photogrammetry to folks who work/volunteer in archaeology/ heritage/arts at #OldScatness. Great to teach photography and 3D processing to record and monitor archaeology in future! @Gavinbdouglas @ProfAndyWilson

Today’s project. Before treatment photos…#hesarchives #paperconservation
