e-Archeo
The project
Project e-Archeo (Ales SpA, on mandate of the Italian Ministry of Culture–MiC) presents a selection of Italian archaeological sites significant for their cultural origins, types of settlement / urban development, and narrative potential.
Eight archaeological sites distributed across the Italian territory have been selected (from north to south):
- Desenzano del Garda — Sirmione
- Marzabotto
- Alba Fucens
- Cerveteri
- Egnazia
- Velia
- Sibari
- Nora
A dedicated web site collects the information of every site and tells its history. For each site, a specific section presents a description (origins and history), images of the most significant and best-preserved contexts (public and private buildings, necropolises), virtual reconstructions, and other multimedia content.

How EM was used
For e-Archeo, Extended Matrix was used to map the reliability level of all the 3D reconstructions which have been shared online via a 3D web viewer. Each reconstruction node carries its own paradata chain, and the reliability is rendered visually in the public web viewer.
