The Becket Connection

3D Modeling | Research

This project sought to provide an interactive visualization of Canterbury around the year 1450. Extensive research and modeling were carried out to recreate the entirety of medieval Canterbury at the time of Thomas Becket. Experience Heritage worked alongside digital creators and researchers at The Centre for the Study of Christianity and Culture (CCC) to help bring 15th century Canterbury to life.

Beth provided invaluable technical expertise on a project here at the University of York that focused on 3D visualisation. Her input helped us achieve what we were aiming for in terms of digital outputs from our work. We would absolutely recommend Experience Heritage to anyone needing advice or expertise on digital matters within the heritage sector.

Elizabeth Castle Jersey Project

Laser Scan Processing | Buildings Archaeology | AutoCAD

The University of York Archaeology Department, working with Jersey Heritage at Elizabeth Castle, carried out laser scans of the surviving WWII bunkers and casements to document them for a site survey report. As part of this, they required accurate and detailed floor plans and elevations of the underground structures.

After processing these laser scans through Leica Cyclone, Autodesk Recap and AutoCAD, we were then able to create vertical and horizontal cuts through the resulting 3D models. Using these slices, we traced features to create floor plans and elevations.

The Elizabeth Castle project gave us the opportunity to work with some amazing and revealing laser scans of WWII bunkers and turn those into useful floor plans and elevation sketches.

Experience Heritage produced some lovely, accurate and detailed plans and sections from this scan data! It was great work and much appreciated.
