The proposed joint UK-Ireland research in the digital humanities, will utilise novel digital twin technologies funded through the AHRC Capabilities for Collections scheme (PI: Wilson 2022-3) in order to digitally document two medieval walled towns in the South (Kilmallock) and North (Derry) of Ireland and link with historic records to reveal hidden insights into these settlements for wide-ranging use.The project aims to: 1) bring together cutting-edge digital heritage technologies (incl vehicle- and back-pack mounted mobile mapping and drone-based capture), alongside place-based humanities research to connect historic environment research with geospatially accurate 3D information of buildings and townscape heritage, including specific archaeological context for key buildings through targeted geophysical prospection (e.g. immediate surroundings of the Dominican Priory of Kilmallock that lies outside the historic town walls); and 2) raise the profile of townscape heritage assets for a variety of purposes ranging from conservation and regeneration initiatives in support of designated properties/ sites, through to education, tourism, health and wellbeing.Cutting edge 3D digital mobile mapping technologies enable accurate and rapid survey that offers a transformative step-change in safeguarding unique heritage assets for the future. The approach will also place community-focused records (maps, deeds, oral histories) and specific building interiors in context and will contribute to heritage understanding for residents and visitors alike. The scale and rapid speed of these mobile capture methods offers new potential use-cases for development of 'discovery' resources for interpretation, education, tourism and orientation of newcomers. Their accuracy serves as valuable baseline data for monitoring future change, as well as offering a lens for direct comparison with original 16th century map records for Kilmallock and Derry.The meaning and value of heritage assets are understood through their role in placemaking, and contribution to identity and community cohesion, offering benefits to health and wellbeing as well as generating economic value through tourism and regeneration. Beyond unknown/ unrecovered archaeological evidence, issues of access in a variety of forms, are key limitations for realising the value of heritage for society. The work will build from expertise at Bradford developed in previous projects, including via infrastructure investment through CapCo and knowledge exchange via the AHRC Place Programme, and via relationships established through pilot work conducted during the AHRC/IRC Digital humanities network.The proposed project aligns with aspirations of the Built Heritage Advisory Section of the National Monuments Service and the Irish Walled Towns Network of the Heritage Council to preserve the historic building fabric, with the community and building owners/ occupiers. The utility of digital twin technologies in place-based research will help to monitor and conserve heritage assets and to layer narratives and understanding of each place upon the digital twin, from the Medieval period up to present day and in this project, represents an important initiative that highlights historic, and creates new connections between North and South Ireland and England.Kilmallock and Derry are connected as members of the Irish Walled Towns Network and Bradford and Derry both have an industrial heritage linked to the textile industry. Derry was the first UK City of Culture and Bradford will be the next UK City of Culture. Transfer of knowledge and expertise between key stakeholders, including community groups and across three local authorities, will realise the potential of digital twinning between Kilmallock - Derry - Bradford in order to forge longstanding connections that offer key benefits past, present and future.

拟议中的英国-爱尔兰数字人文学科联合研究将利用由AHRC收集能力计划（PI: Wilson 2022-3）资助的新型数字孪生技术，以数字方式记录爱尔兰南部（Kilmallock）和北部（Derry）的两个中世纪城墙城镇，并与历史记录联系起来，揭示对这些定居点的隐藏见解，以供广泛使用。该项目旨在：1)结合尖端的数字遗产技术（包括车载和背包式移动测绘和基于无人机的捕获），以及基于地点的人文研究，将历史环境研究与建筑和城镇景观遗产的地理空间精确3D信息联系起来；通过有针对性的地球物理勘探，包括关键建筑的具体考古背景（例如，位于历史城墙外的多明尼加基尔马洛克修道院的周边地区）；2)提升城市景观遗产的形象，以达到各种目的，包括保育和重建计划，以支持指定的物业/地点，以及教育、旅游、健康和福祉。尖端的3D数字移动地图技术能够实现准确和快速的调查，为未来保护独特的遗产资产提供了革命性的变化。该方法还将以社区为中心的记录（地图、契约、口述历史）和特定的建筑内部置于背景中，并将有助于居民和游客对遗产的理解。这些移动捕捉方法的规模和速度为开发“发现”资源提供了新的潜在用例，用于解释、教育、旅游和新来者的定位。它们的准确性为监测未来的变化提供了宝贵的基线数据，也为与16世纪Kilmallock和Derry的原始地图记录进行直接比较提供了一个镜头。遗产资产的意义和价值是通过它们在地方建设中的作用、对身份和社区凝聚力的贡献、对健康和福祉的益处以及通过旅游和再生产生的经济价值来理解的。除了未知/未恢复的考古证据之外，各种形式的访问问题是实现遗产对社会价值的主要限制。这项工作将以布拉德福德在以前的项目中开发的专业知识为基础，包括通过CapCo进行基础设施投资，通过AHRC地方计划进行知识交流，以及通过AHRC/IRC数字人文网络开展的试点工作建立的关系。拟议的项目符合国家古迹管理局建筑遗产咨询组和遗产委员会爱尔兰围墙城镇网络的愿望，即与社区和建筑业主/占用人一起保护历史建筑结构。数字孪生技术在基于地点的研究中的应用将有助于监测和保护遗产资产，并在数字孪生的基础上对每个地方进行分层叙述和理解，从中世纪到现在，在这个项目中，它代表了一个重要的倡议，突出了历史，并在南北爱尔兰和英格兰之间建立了新的联系。基尔玛洛克和德里是爱尔兰城墙城镇网络的成员，布拉德福德和德里都有与纺织工业有关的工业遗产。德里是第一个英国文化之城，布拉德福德将成为下一个英国文化之城。包括社区团体和三个地方当局在内的关键利益相关者之间的知识和专业知识转移将实现Kilmallock - Derry - Bradford之间数字孪生的潜力，从而建立长期联系，为过去、现在和未来提供关键利益。
