Collected files have to be intended as an example of digital heritage data obtained
as laser range scans, GPS data or traditional archaeological documentation.
The Villa Livia dataset is a collection of files used within the “virtual museum of
the ancient Via Flaminia” [
218
] project: a 3D reconstruction of several archaeologi-
cal sites along the ancient Via Flaminia, the largest of them being
Villa Livia
shown

:
A rough estimate of the total dataset size is 500 GB. File types in this set
include:
•
3D point clouds (imp, dxf, dwg)
•
Elevation grids (agr, bt)
•
3D meshes (mdl, vrml, v3d)
•
Textured 3D models (max, pmr, ive, osg)
•
Satellite data (ers, ecw)
•
GPS data, maps (txt, apm, shp)
•
Digital images (targa, jpeg, tiff, png, psd, bmp, gif, dds)
Currently (as of end of Y2), two file types have been used for testing:
•
an elevation grid of the site (agr/grd)
•
map of the site contours (shp)
