The results of our work in the field
我們的成果
are used to produce
被用于媒體創作
media and deliverables to be used
并交付給文物修復人員
by conservators and researchers.
和研究人員使用
We also produce media for
我們也創作用于傳播的媒體作品
dissemination to the public --
向公眾開放
free through the CyArk website.
通過CyArk的網站就可免費瀏覽
These would be used for education,
這些可用于教育
cultural tourism, etc.
文化觀光等
What you're looking at in here
這個是一個
is a 3D viewer that we developed
我們開發的3D查看器
that would allow the display
能夠實時展示
cloud of points
和控制這些數據點集合
in real time, cutting sections through them
查看切面
and extracting dimensions.
提取維度數據
This happens to be the cloud of points
這些是蒂卡爾的
for Tikal.
數據點集合
In here you see a traditional 2D
這個是傳統的二維
architectural engineering drawing
手繪建筑工程圖
that's used for preservation, and of course
用于保存
we tell the stories through fly-throughs.
當然查看圖像的方式是全景自由視角
And here, this is a fly-through
這是從自由視角
the cloud of points of Tikal,
看蒂卡爾的數據點集合
and here you see it rendered
你能看到
and photo-textured with the photography
它通過我們拍下的照片
that we take of the site.
把這里呈現出照片的質感
And so this is not a video.
但這不是個視頻
This is actual 3D points with
這是精確到2到3毫米的
two to three millimeter accuracy.
實際三維定點
And of course the data can be used
這些數據可以用于
to develop 3D models that are
開發無比精確和充滿細節的
very accurate and very detailed.
三維模型
And here you're looking at a model
這是一個按照斯特靈城堡
that's extracted from the cloud of points
的數據而建的
for Stirling Castle.
模型
It's used for studies, for visualization,
它被用于研究、觀看
as well as for education.
和教育
And finally, we produce mobile apps
最后我們還開發了手機應用程序
that include narrated virtual tools.
包括可視化描述的工具
The more I got involved
越深入
in the heritage field,
世界遺產的領域
the more it became clear to me
我就越清晰的認識到
that we are losing the sites
我們失去這些遺址及其文化的速度
and the stories faster than we can
比我們能實際保存的速度
physically preserve them.
要快多了
Of course, earthquakes
毋庸置疑,地震
and all the natural phenomena --
等自然災害——
floods, tornadoes, etc. --
洪水、颶風等——
take their toll.
的確在不斷侵襲
However, what occurred to me was
但我發現
human-caused destruction, which was
更嚴重的是人為原因的破壞
not only causing a significant portion
這些行為不僅正在侵蝕寶貴的
of the destruction, but actually
遺跡,事實上
it was accelerating.
其破壞速率也在與日俱增
This includes arson,
這些行為包括縱火
urban sprawl,
城市擴張
acid rain, not to mention
酸雨
terrorism and wars.
更不用說恐怖主義和戰爭
It was getting more and more apparent
我們輸掉這場遺產保衛戰的勢頭
that we're fighting a losing battle.
愈來愈明顯
We're losing our sites
我們正在失去古跡
and the stories,
失去它們的故事
and basically we're losing
更重要的我們正失去
a piece -- and a significant piece --
人類共同記憶中
of our collective memory.
十分重要的一部分
Imagine us as a human race
試想如果人類
not knowing where we came from.
對自己的歷史一無所知會怎樣
Luckily, in the last two or three decades,
還好在過去的二三十年中
digital technologies have been developing
數字技術有了長足發展
that have helped us to develop tools
幫助我們開發了很多工具
that we've brought to bear
我們借此
in the digital preservation,
進行數字保存
in our digital preservation war.
贏得數字保存的戰爭
This includes, for example,
這些工具包括
the 3D laser scanning systems,
3D鐳射掃描系統
ever more powerful personal computers,
更強大功能的個人電腦
3D graphics,
3D圖片
high-definition digital photography,
高清數碼照片
not to mention the Internet.
以及無須贅言的網絡
Because of this accelerated
因為越來越快的
pace of destruction,
毀壞速度
it became clear to us that we needed
我們更清楚認識到
to challenge ourselves and our partners
我們要給自己以及我們的同道人施加更大的壓力
to accelerate our work.
以加快工程速度
And we created a project
我們設立了一個
we call the CyArk 500 Challenge --
“數字方舟500挑戰”的計劃——
and that is to digitally preserve
旨在未來五年間
500 World Heritage Sites
數字化保存下五百個
in five years.
世界遺產
We do have the technology
我們有這個技術
that's scaleable,
并且能擴展應用
and our network of global partners
我們的合作關系遍布全球
has been expanding and can be expanded
并且yijing能快速地
at a rapid rate,
擴張
so we're comfortable
我們有信心
that this task can be accomplished.
完成這個任務
