Workshop “A cathedral of digital data and multidisciplinary knowledge” from 19 to 21 June 2024 in Marseilles and online

Following thematic paths from the material object to its digitisation, and then from data to multidisciplinary knowledge, these study days are structured around sessions presenting the advances made by the members of the ‘digital data’ working group and round tables to discuss the issues relating to these advances with the representatives of the other working groups of the scientific site (wood, stone, structure, acoustics, decoration, heritage emotions, etc.).

Workshop organised by the “digital data” working group of Notre-Dame de Paris Scientific Project

19-21 June 2024, Auditorium Pierre Desnuelles, CNRS Joseph Aiguier Campus, Marseilles

Heritage research transforms the interaction between material objects and multidisciplinary studies into a vector for the production of collective knowledge. As part of the Notre-Dame de Paris research project, interaction between different disciplines has been crucial to enriching our understanding of a complex heritage object, while renewing our thinking on collaborative methods in the digital age.

The ‘digital data’ working group’s approach to computational modelling and digitisation takes advantage of this wide-ranging scientific project, bringing together specialists from a variety of fields (archaeology, anthropology, architecture, history, chemistry, physics, computing) to develop a body of data that reflects current scientific practice in the study of heritage.

We aspire to transcend the simple digitisation of the physical object to embrace an in-depth knowledge of it, by examining how the characteristics of the material object and the knowledge associated with it feed each other through the prism of research. These issues highlight the complexity of interdisciplinary collaboration and the need to develop innovative solutions for the co-production and interconnection of digital data enriched by a plurality of disciplinary perspectives.

Following thematic paths from the material object to its digitisation, and then from data to multidisciplinary knowledge, these study days are structured around sessions presenting the advances made by the members of the ‘digital data’ working group and round tables to discuss the issues relating to these advances with the representatives of the other working groups of the scientific site (wood, stone, structure, acoustics, decoration, heritage emotions, etc.). The aim of this structure is to encourage a rich, interdisciplinary exchange of ideas, enabling in-depth discussions on the methodologies, results obtained and prospects to be developed in the coming years as part of the nDame_Heritage ERC project.

Although focused on data from Notre-Dame de Paris, this event aims to extend its reflections and methodologies to the wider field of heritage science. Our aim is to lay the foundations for understanding and managing scientific data for the purposes of heritage knowledge, conservation and restoration.
