Two field surveys and a virtual convening that will assess the use of the Open Heritage 3D platform, a repository for 3D cultural heritage data.  

The goal of this project is to enhance the Open Heritage 3D (OH3D) platform – an open access repository of 3D cultural heritage data. Through two surveys targeting 3D content creators and OH3D end users we aim to better understand the open access and data preservation requirements for publishers of data as well as identify technical barriers, IP limitations and re-use scenarios for end users and ultimately develop a plan of action to enhance the platform for both constituencies.
