Abstract:

The rise of digital technologies in heritage-related fieldwork offers new potentials and new challenges for digital preservation, research, and scholarship. Potentials include speed, accuracy, and new opportunities for visualization, while challenges include mastering the necessary technological expertise to collect data, finding and funding the experts in technologies that support the collecting and use of data, creating appropriate protocols for the archiving of data, and discovering value for research and scholarship using this data. The goal for digital preservation of “making the invisible visible” aids in strategizing and planning the application and experimentation of digital technologies in heritage study. Asking what we can see anew, what new stories we can tell, with data generated by these technologies can help keep their application moderated and purposeful. This article presents field study examples that take an analytical and interpretive approach, using the data collected with digital technologies to help make the invisible visible. Themes include nondominant narratives, practicing a cultural landscapes approach, imagining lived experience, and communication and presentation of digital heritage data.

摘要：

与遗产相关的实地工作中数字技术的兴起为数字保存、研究和学术提供了新的潜力和新的挑战。潜力包括速度、准确性和可视化的新机会，而挑战包括掌握必要的技术专业知识来收集数据，寻找和资助支持收集和使用数据的技术专家，创建适当的数据存档协议，以及使用这些数据发现研究和学术的价值。“使无形可见”的数字保存目标有助于制定战略和规划数字技术在遗产研究中的应用和实验。问我们可以重新看到什么，我们可以讲述什么新故事，使用这些技术生成的数据可以帮助他们的应用程序保持适度和有目的性。本文介绍了采用分析和解释方法的实地研究示例，使用通过数字技术收集的数据来帮助使隐形可见。主题包括非主流叙事、实践文化景观方法、想象生活体验以及数字遗产数据的交流和展示。
