Reflectance Transformation
Imaging
Kathryn Piquette from the University of Cologne will be at
Digital Past 2015 to speak and host a workshop on Reflectance Transformation
Imaging (RTI). This advanced
photographic technique provides high resolution documentation of surfaces/objects
and enables the user to virtually relight and artificially enhance faint marks
and other features, for example increasing the legibility of inscriptions on a
variety of materials such as papyrus, clay or stone and thus aiding understanding
for both archaeological and conservation purposes.
A topic of great interest to anyone working with heritage
objects, including archaeologists, historians, librarians, museums curators,
conservators and photographers.
