Request for proposals: Evaluation of ALIPH-funded projects focusing on the production of digital heritage (3D digitization & satellite imagery analysis)

About the position

As part of its evaluation policy, ALIPH is seeking a reviewer to evaluate a series of ALIPH-funded projects that produced digital data, notably in the context of 3D digitization and satellite imagery analysis projects.

To date, the ALIPH Foundation has supported 11 projects that have produced and relied on the analysis of 3D models and satellite imagery. The usage of this category of data is relatively new in the field of cultural heritage. It raises important questions, regarding context of production, standard and interoperability of the data, storage, access, usage, intellectual property, privacy and security, etc.

For these reasons, the Foundation is reviewing projects in its portfolio that produced digital assets. The selected evaluator will be required to propose the following:

  1. Technical evaluation of a selection of projects, including an assessment of how the data were produced, managed, and used;
  2. Production of practical standards to ensure the quality (accuracy, precision, geographic coordinate system) and interoperability of the data produced and facilitate its use by the largest quantity of operators;
  3. Recommendations to the Foundation regarding the conditions under which ALIPH should keep supporting these projects.
