This project aims to revolutionize landscape, site, and artefact analyses by bringing new transformative digital recording methods and computed analysis to fields that are traditionally labour intensive. The scale of the resultant technology and capability will generate a paradigm shift in the way that spatial and functional data are studied in heritage sciences.Conventional 'refit analysis' requires an expert to study thousands of individual pieces from prehistoric archaeological sites and try to find pieces that fit together, eventually reconstructing objects, such as stone tool cores. Due to the size and complexity of these sites, it makes them important for understanding past human behaviour, however this also makes them the least understood by archaeologists and the public. The amount of effort this requires increases exponentially with assemblage size and generally entire sites can not be studied. Automation of this process will transform working practices bringing rapid and total surveys in reach of many more projects. The implications of such capability are widespread. At a site and landscape level the addition of digital recording, automated capture and processing to augment landscape survey will enhance the ability to archaeologically record and resolve complex surface scatters in landscapes, this will also allow sites that have previously been too remote and inhospitable to be surveyed. Work can then be done faster and allow areas for targeted survey to be identified easily and safely. At a macro scale, the method will resolve complex associations facilitating interpretation through visualisations and aiding physical reconstruction. The generation of high fidelity digital output will enable closer working of researchers across traditional boundaries and will benefit the specialist and nonspecialist alike. These combined transformative scalable approaches to refit analysis will have broad application to all disciplines working with objects across the arts and humanities - ranging from three-dimensional artists to heritage professionals such as conservators/ restorers and even impacting on other disciplines such as forensic science.Outputs of the project will be highly visual and are tailored to maximise impact with the involvement of a visual artist as an integral part of the project team. The project teams involved in the various work packages involve high profile international co-investigators.

该项目旨在通过将新的变革性数字记录方法和计算分析引入传统劳动密集型领域，彻底改变景观、场地和文物分析。由此产生的技术和能力的规模将在遗产科学中研究空间和功能数据的方式上产生范式转变。传统的“改装分析”需要专家研究史前考古遗址的数千个单独的碎片，并试图找到适合在一起的碎片，最终重建物体，如石器核心。由于这些遗址的规模和复杂性，它们对于了解过去的人类行为非常重要，但这也使它们成为考古学家和公众最不了解的地方。这需要的工作量随着集合体的大小呈指数级增加，并且通常不能研究整个站点。这一过程的自动化将改变工作实践，使更多的项目得到快速和全面的调查。这种能力的影响是广泛的。在场地和景观层面，增加数字记录、自动捕获和处理以增强景观调查，将提高考古记录和解决景观中复杂表面散射的能力，这也将使以前过于偏远和不适宜居住的场地得以调查。这样可以更快地完成工作，并允许轻松安全地确定有针对性的调查区域。在宏观尺度上，该方法将解决复杂的关联，通过可视化和辅助物理重建促进解释。高保真数字输出的产生将使研究人员能够跨越传统界限进行更密切的工作，并将使专家和非专家都受益。这些组合的改造性可扩展方法将广泛应用于与艺术和人文学科的对象相关的所有学科-从三维艺术家到文物保护专家，如文物保护专家。该项目的成果将是高度视觉化的，并将视觉艺术家的参与作为一个整体，以最大限度地发挥影响力。项目团队的一部分。参与各种一揽子工作的项目小组包括知名度很高的国际共同调查员。
