Project

We are in the process of taking stereo photographs of an excavation site in Jordan. Then we are going to superimpose the images with a 3D model of the site. This will give the viewer an understanding of the visual appearance of the site today and thousands of years ago.

When taking stereo images we are recording additional meta-data with the images:

  • GPS latitude/longitude of tripod mount on slide bar
  • height of camera lens above ground
  • slide bar needs to be level (bubble level on slide bar)
  • camera lens needs to be a human eye distance apart for left and right eye images. The nominal interocular distance is 6.3 cm, but it can vary between humans by as much as +- 2cm
