A six-day cultural heritage workshop was held in Ho Chi Minh City and Cat Tien, Lam Dong Province, Vietnam, from 21-26 October.
This year, the workshop was jointly organised with the Southern Institute of Social Sciences in Vietnam,
with the theme of “3D Documentation and Management of Archaeological Sites and Artefacts”,
and practical training in photogrametory using SfM-MVS was conducted at the Cat Tien Archaeological Site and Archaeological Museum.
The lecturers dispatched from Japan were Dr. Hiroshi Yamaguchi from the Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties
and Ms Tomomi Suzuki from the Museum of the Archaeological Institute of Kashihara, Nara Prefecture,
who explained not only documentation techiniques by photogrammetry, but also the advantages and disadvantages of 3D documentation, and how 3D data is utilised in Japan.
Fifteen participants from the Southern Institute of Social Sciences in Vietnam
and experts belonging to various historical museums across Vietnam were actively engaged in 3D documentation practices and data analysis.
We hope that the skills and knowledge gained through the workshop will be developed by them in the future.
Finally, we would like to thank the Consulate-General of Japan in Ho Chi Minh City,
the Southern Institute of Social Sciences in Vietnam, the Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties,
the Archaeological Institute of Kashihara, and Nara Prefecture for their cooperation in organising this workshop.
