Hello Listeros,

The Mesoamerican Three-Dimensional Imaging Project establishes an expandable
database of Mesoamerican artifacts. The initial purpose of the archive is to
record and document a wide variety of sculpted objects, preserve the data
for the foreseeable future, and make these data easily accessible to
researchers. Through a fusion of state-of-the-art "High Definition
Archaeological Documentation and Survey" that includes three-dimensional
laser scanning, geomatic (spatially reference) data, digitizing systems and
processing, and high-resolution digital photography, accurate renderings of
these objects will be available for a diversity of applications. The
coordinators, Travis Doering and Lori Collins, have received a FAMSI grant
for scanning monuments from Kaminaljuyu, Guatemala.
