| description | The FACADE project at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the USA
is exploring the long-term archiving and preservation of digital data from architectural projects
in general, and 3D models and related information in particular. The project is working
with design data from major building projects of the architects Frank Gehry and Moshe Safdie
initially, and will generalize its findings to other architectural firms using 3D design software.
The project is also exploring how to relate 3D designs with related 2D drawings, digital images
and videos, email and other communications, and with emerging Building Information Models
(BIMs). A prototype archive for this material will be produced with DSpace, the open source
digital archive system originally developed by MIT and HP Labs and now widely used by
research organizations world-wide. |
