(1) Digital Preservation (2) The DURAARK project… (3) …and Rosetta

What a digital preservation system

should do

:

• respect technical and human requirements from institutional intrinsic and extrinsic views • archive the data with additional and sufficient information (metadata) • save the data on three layers: http://duraark.eu/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/duraark_d6.6.1_final.pdf (Accessed 09/05/2014)

(1) Digital Preservation

DURAble ARchitectural Knowledge – DURAARK

funded by the European Union within the 7th Framework Programme February 2013 – January 2016

• • •

Goal & Scope:

• develop methods and tools for sustainable long-term preservation of building data (3D formats, metadata, related knowledge and Web data) • analysis of potential stakeholders (architects, building owners, researcher, cultural heritage institutions etc.) address all layers of digital preservation (bit, logical, semantic) • interlinked curation and preservation workflow establish a competence center for archiving of 3D data at the TIB in Hannover NOT: develop a new digital preservation system

Plan Scan • •

Building Information Model

• with the help of software (“CAD-System”) constructed model of a building • • geometric visualization of a building it must not fit into the real building enriched with (semantic) information from different sources (e. g., vendor databases) usage through different actors (e. g., architects, building engineers etc.) • •

Point Cloud Scan

• special 3D scanner analyzes real world objects and are able to construct a digital 3D model – a point cloud represents the constitution of an “is-built”-building could differ from the plan but requires an existing building Photo • •

How does it look?

• real representation of the archived object metadata about it should be captured as well plan and scan are associated over the real world representation

State of the Art (on preservation of architectural 3D data):

• various, established formats, but no standards • • • • nearly no suitable metadata format missing compatibility of existing preservation tools few experiences / projects not any experiences on the preservation planning http://duraark.eu/wp content/uploads/2014/02/duraark_d6.6.1_final.pdf (Accessed 09/05/2014)

9 / 15 09 / 17 / 14

First results

• recommendations for open, standardized and archival formats: • – – IFC-SPF (BIM) E57 (point cloud) metadata schema “buildm” for content related description of the archived objects • – – – first prototype of a DURAARK workbench with following functionalities: semantic enrichment of 3D data identification of 3D formats preperation for preservation

Next steps

• establishment of the recommended formats • • stakeholder survey for acceptance of our project(-results) digital preservation of 3D data in our digital preservation system 

Rosetta

What

we

are doing with Rosetta:

• we preserve digital materials on all three layers of preservation • for our library, we have established and are establishing standards and workflows towards the goal of digital preservation • • we enrich our digital material with metadata of our library catalogue and we are able to deal with a large amount of data.

(3) ...and Rosetta

(3) ...and Rosetta

13 / 15 09 / 17 / 14 Existing tools for various file formats: Jhove, Tika, fido, fits, DROID, … Few existing tools for Building Information Models (IFC-SPF) and point clouds (E57): DROID signature pattern extension, E57 validator, IFC validator, …

Digital Preservation of architectural 3D data – an outlook: • DURAARK workbench to aid producers in the preparation of objects for the delivery to a digital preservation system • • • file format identification, technical metadata extraction, file format validation for IFC-SPF and E57 within Rosetta sample preservation planning for content types BIM & 3D scan curational tools to aid archives and libraries in appraisal and selection processes outside of the digital preservation system Do you have architectural 3D data? We are interested in your requirements!
