<< Objectives >>The main goal of the project is to provide a learning material of online access, that can help adult learners, architects and heritage managers to learn about the effective and spectacular realisation of photogrammetric surveys. The summary of best practice examples will include the possible ways of using the collected dataset for the realistic and precise representation of the surveyed buildings to popularise the most-up-to date methodologies and to ease the access to these solutions.<< Implementation >>The basis of the project is the realisation of 4 camps in rural, disadvantaged regions, where photogrammetric surveys will be carried out together with local associated partners representing learners with fewer opportunities.The selected monuments will be representatives of vernacular acrhitecture including a timber framed barn, a hayrack, a belfry and a stone house. Partners of the programme will assemble 3D materials and educational contents based on the architectural research and survey.<< Results >>The project will result-in an Educational Platform & Homepage to share all further project outputs. The great potential laying in photogrammetry will be portrayed through 2D architectural drawings and 3D renditions of the surveyed buildings in the form of interactive spherical panoramas and 3D models. The main project result will be the Digital Handbook which will summarise the theories and followable methodologies of the surveys using also interactive quizzes to measure the gained knowledge.

'Re-think Heritage!' project was brought into being as a transnational partnership to answer the great need for new, innovative practices in the education of heritage management and protection of monuments. The partnership is made up of institutions of various profiles including non-governmental associations, a university, a municipal department and a web development enterprise, all being active in the field of heritage protection or in the development of digital-form educational materials.The project aims to assemble a Digital Handbook of European scope which operates with illustrative and interactive features for providing clearer understanding on complex technical details of traditional building technologies and on the debatable questions of historic preservation of monuments, while collecting together the most important principles and instruments of heritage management, their development throughout history and showcasing best practice examples in the management of heritage protected areas and monuments. This educational tool is also planned to be paired with a structured learning management system allowing distance learning technologies for the digitally elaborated training course of the project. The project initiatives will be also supported by the downloadable print-form version of the handbook and a guidance material explaining the usage of the e-learning platform and facilitating the implementation of the course material to the curricula of any educational frameworks of VET and universities throughout Europe.The project targets not only learners of architecture and heritage management studies, but also practising professionals of these occupations, who will be able to use the online accessible materials in their everyday work, while dealing with building contractors and craftspersons or negotiating with developers or decision-makers, using the Handbook as an essential store of knowledge, that can also help the reasoning process through its highly illustrative graphics and interactive methodologies. Further target group of the project are homeowners and lease holders of heritage protected properties who can get access to important but easily understandable knowledge for the proper and authentic maintenance of their homes.It is expected that the innovative and digital features of the new training materials will contribute to the greater acknowledgement of heritage management by providing more relevant and useful knowledge for architects and heritage professionals than that any former learning materials could previously offer, attracting a wider audience of the local communities and convincing more decision-makers on different levels about the importance of modern heritage protection of outstanding quality.
