ESPADON : The Dynamic Analysis of Ancient and Digital Objects in Heritage Science
The ESPADON project aims to make available to the community, on the one hand, new instrumental resources for multi-scale 3D tomography and 2D multi-physics imaging, which have become possible thanks in particular to the increase in computing power, and, on the other hand, unique digital resources and know-how for processing and managing massive data and storage, in complementarity with and with the support of the TGIR Human-Num and the SoCoRe and Parcours actions already underway. Taken as a whole, ESPADON will consolidate the momentum already established since the launch of the first PATRIMEX EquipEx. Ultimately, this project will incorporate the following elements:
• Setting up a network of devices working on different scales and at different levels of mobility, enabling us to move to the works when necessary.
• Mutualised data management and use.
• The effective structuring of a network of researchers and laboratories in the region, including training for students and future researchers.
• Setting up a raw data archive via Humanum, as well as “finalised” data enabling the creation of the heritage object.
