Stefan EICHERT | Nina BRUNDKE | Alexander WATZINGER | Roland FILZWIESER | Jennifer PORTSCHY(Natural History Museum Vienna and Austrian Archaeological Institute, Vienna Austria) Keywords: Burial Archaeology, Anthropology, Open Data, Digital Humanities, Open Source Description of the APP: THANADOS – The Anthropological and Archaeological Database of Sepultures (https://thanados.net and https://github.com/stefaneichert/thanados) is an open source online application for the dissemination, presentation and visualisation of data on archaeologically and anthropologically investigated burials.It works with data based on the CIDOC-CRM that were acquired through the OpenAtlas system (https://openatlas.eu). It represents an open data repository of Austrian cemeteries from the Early Middle Ages and allows the user to browse these data on very detailed levels, conduct all kinds of queries and visualise them via maps, plots etc. and export them to various formats for further research. It includes a vocabulary for burial archaeology and anthropology, links to various gazetteers, detailed metadata and provides an API for linked open data.It comprises – amongst other things – descriptions, classifications, images and (if available) 3D models (e.g. https://thanados.net/entity/137011) of finds and features, detailed osteology data (e.g. https://thanados.net/entity/119172 “Osteology tab”) and allows for intrasite as well as for intersite searches and GIS visualisations with a variety of options.It is being developed within an ongoing “GoDigital! – Next Generation” project of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. The project is hosted at the Natural History Museum Vienna (Prehistory Department) and the Austrian Archaeological Institute (OeAW – Vienna) in cooperation with the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage (ACDH-CH).

Walpola Layantha PERERA | Heike MESSEMER | Matthias HEINZ, Rebekka DIETZ(Technische Universität Dresden, Germany) Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Mobile App, Cultural Heritage, Digital Humanities, Art History Description of the APP: The European Commission and cultural institutions in Europe realized that it is vital to document architectural cultural heritage digitally. Hence, a vast amount of 2D images, 3D models and textual historical data has been generated already by academic, non-governmental and commercial organizations. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help to interpret and present this big data of historical information on mobile apps in creative and interesting ways. Therefore, building an AI supported mobile app by using this big data to travel through the history of an architectural icon is the aim of this project. Short description about the app: Travel virtually to the history of buildings in Dresden, Germany.Long description: This app can be used to recognize landmark buildings, recognizing texts on historical buildings, and classification. Also, the app can be used to virtually travel to the history of buildings in Dresden, Germany. Features of the app: Tour with artificial intelligence, art history, buildings recognition, Classification, Image labelling, Text recognition, travel to past with mobile devices. Especially for researchers and students in the field of art and architectural history and history such an napp can be a fruitful research tool. The users have the possibility to gain access to a vast amount of data of cultural heritage including metadata and corresponding sources digitally. They can retrieve the data and implement it in their studies. The app provides access to information in a quick way and thus helps students to learn about architectural history. Moreover, this app offers the possibility for history enthusiasts and tourists to travel to the architectural past. The following image is a screenshot of the...

Jose KOZAN | Iara KOZAN | Jarrod BURKS | John E. HANCOCK(Heartland Earthworks Conservancy; Virtual Grounds Interactive, Cincinnati, OH, USA) Keywords: Earthworks, Augmented Reality, Vanished Heritage, Virtual Reconstruction Description of the APP: Many types of vanished heritage sites now benefit from virtual reconstructions, but large earthworks present several specific problems, including their vast, almost incomprehensible scale, and their often severely-degraded conditions. Like many of the region’s ancient American Indian monuments scattered throughout the USA, the Junction Group of Earthworks has been flattened by many decades of agriculture. Originally documented in a mid-nineteenth century engraving, the site was object of two magnetic surveys conducted in 2005 and 2015, which were a resounding success. The ancient earthworks circles, crescents, and other figures were revealed in unprecedented detail in the magnetic data.The Junction Earthworks Trail Tour app helps with the virtual rebirth of this two-thousand-year-old geometric earthwork complex in Chillicothe, Ohio, USA. The downloadable app is coordinated with a trail and its five sign locations, providing wayfinding along with several visualization and interpretation tools. Signage text is complemented in the app by in-depth videos and interviews, and 360-degree rendered panoramas of the virtually restored complex. A digital model of the earthworks opens in augmented reality which users can explore, choose between map overlays of the old engraving and the new mag-data, open content windows, and simulate water on the geometric figures’ interior ditches.The app gives Junction Earthworks visitors innovative and uniquely effective ways to grasp the complex history, formal precision, vast scale, and even the sacred aura of this ancient ceremonial center. https://youtu.be/eAlezCThu5o The Junction Earthworks Trail Tour app is available free for download from Apple’s App Store and Google Play https://apps.apple.com/us/app/junction-earthworks/id1472880036...
