Subject: Photogrammetry Training at The Postal Museum in September
Hello Everyone!
Through the London Museum Development Digital Futures Scheme we're
happy to be offering a free one-day photogrammetry training workshop
at The Postal Museum Digitisation Studio on Tuesday 4th September.
https://www.museumoflondon.org.uk/supporting-london-museums/training-and-sk…
Run by myself, Hannah Winn (The Postal Museum) and Alec Ward (London
Museum Development, Museum of London) this course will cover the
absolute basics and is aimed at cultural heritage professionals in
general, so please do share with your colleagues outside of the
studio, but is also well suited as an introduction to photogrammetry
for photographers and imaging techs. We'll go through the whole
process of capture, processing and building a model using Agisoft
Photoscan (a free demo can be downloaded). We'll also discuss
different software options and scanning technology with side-by-side
comparisons.
Priority is given to staff/volunteers working at non-national London museums.
Best Wishes
Andrew

Please have a look and let me know if you have any feedback.
We particularly need help with:
1. Writing short blog posts, to be released between now and the end of
September
2. Providing material for the England, Scotland, Wales and NI local
pages, for example meetups, local initiatives, suggestions for local
subjects to photograph and so on.
3. Getting the word out to local photographic and local history societies.
Please help if you can.
