The development of Wat Makutkasattriyaram e-museum
This document discusses the development of the Wat Makutkasattriyaram e-museum project in Thailand. It describes the digitization of museum objects using 3D laser scanning and photographic VR techniques, the design of a metadata database, and the construction of a web-based application to host the virtual museum. Challenges encountered during fieldwork are also outlined, along with the current progress of the project and plans for future improvements.
