The number of CC-BY-SA #cuneiform #tablets just got bigger by 44. Also having #IIIF manifests and #3D/PLYs. Also the first time that Luis Sáenz as an assyriologist collected and prepared the dataset :) Steffen Bauer, Heidelberg and Timo Homburg, Mainz supported the work on the technical side.

FB GeschKult @freieuniversitaet@berlin.social has this nice tradition to welcome new members with flowers. This is actually the third bouquet I got yesterday at the end of the semester closing. Also our new Institute of Computational Ancient Studies (CompAS) became official these days 🙂
New article by @fractal_linsel@archaeo.social and Jan Philipp Bullenkamp about new methods for lithic artifacts with a strong focus on re-use of open #3D data!

@avstockhausen@fedihum.org da ist gerade ein neues Wikidata property beantragt: https://m.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/Patristic_Text_Archive#Discussion -👍🏻 Wäre neugierig wie das mit dem Projekt in Zusammenhang steht?
Die Süddeutsche Zeitung hat letztens etwas unbemerkt einen Artikel zur #Archäoinformatik an der Freie Universität Berlin und weiteren Standorten in Deutschland geschrieben. Mit dabei im Interview die Kollegin Eliese-Sophia Lincke zur #Computerphilologie der Alten Welt und unser Dekan Shabo Talay mit seinen Aramäisch Online Projekten:

... auch mit dem Hinweis auf die schwierige Finanzlage in Berlin. #SaveBrainCity

und LDA Sachsen-Anhalt. This is inspired by our #HeiCuBeDa dataset for #cuneiform tablets applied to #numismatics using a different acquisition technique. https://doi.org/10.5334/joad.116 @nfdi4objects@nfdi.social @nfdi4culture@nfdi.social
New@gigamesh@archaeo.social release improving the #glTF file export functions - smaller files and vertex colors. @nfdi4objects@nfdi.social @nfdi4culture@nfdi.social @NFDI@nfdi.social
@aboutgeo@vis.social I am not sure if you already have it on your list and if the #cuneiform #3D renderings are of interest as the metadata is quite slim, but they do have proper manifests now: https://doi.org/10.11588/heidicon.hilprecht However, I am looking forward to the blog post!

Currently experimenting with a #glTF export function for @gigamesh@archaeo.social Interestingly this format is not very efficient as files are three(!) times larger than ASCII PLYs or OBJs. Not very well suited for long term storage and archival. #FDM #researchdatamanagement #3D @nfdi4culture@nfdi.social #NFDI4Objects
