Abstract

3D reconstructions of passed or altered as well as 3D constructions of never existent historic artefacts, in brief intangible artefacts, are likewise results and subjects of complex socio-technical interaction. Consequently, virtual libraries and platforms supporting 3D reconstruction projects have to meet technical requirements dedicated to creation and interoperation in the same time as they have to track individual workflows and to assist scientific customs and cooperation strategies. Based on observations from various 3D reconstruction projects, this article will highlight typical phenomena and practical strategies related to data and knowledge management and suggest implications for a design of virtual libraries and platforms.
