贾斯汀·巴顿– a technology pro and advocate for reality capture in heritage

贾斯汀·巴顿（Justin Barton）在2004年8月在加州大学伯克利分校的大学考古研究中看到了他的第一点云。15年后，他仍然对这项技术的结果以及客户如何将现实捕获用于无数应用程序感到惊讶。亚博ag真人规律

Leveraging his 10 years of experience as an advocate for terrestrial laser scanning atCyArk, a non-profit creating digital records of heritage sites and works of historic significance, Barton joined the reality capture division of Hexagon Geosystems as a software product manager in 2014.

“I was thrilled at the opportunity to try something new, and to bring my unique heritage-focused customer experience to the table,”巴顿说。“As a product manager, it brings me great joy and satisfaction to march towards better, faster, more efficient, and smarter workflows to derive useful and valuable information for our customers.”

塑造遗产保护

Modern humans, from a biological evolutionary perspective, evolved in a range from 90 to 200 thousand years ago. The span of written human history only dates back to a little more than 5,000 years ago and, for some regions, recorded history is considerably more limited to a more recent period.

Interpreting the often inaccurate and incomplete written history relies on archaeological research. Reality capture technology helps archaeologists to fully document and digitise heritage in accurate 3D models, providing actionable and visualised data.

塑造遗产保护是巴顿的个人任务。理解和保存如何理解和保存如何理解和保存最容易受到侵蚀的考古资源，例如陶土或阿杜波砖。

“了解遗产就像我们的集体自我的治疗一样 - 如果您想改善和欣赏自己的成长，您必须知道自己真正是谁，”explains Barton.“I think, realising our follies and understanding our potential is key for our greatest, best, and smartest future. And to me, heritage preservation is key to that.”

“ Leica Geosystems鼓励我追求自己的激情”

从第一个3Dsurvey of Mount Rushmore National Memorial为了在悉尼歌剧院的数字保存中，巴顿一直在不断挑战自己。

The heritage preservation advocate is working full time while doing a PhD part time at The University of Queensland. Merging his passion for heritage with work at Leica Geosystems is both filling and continuously rewarding. For his outstanding achievements and passionate attitude, xHyt magazine nominated Barton among the40岁以下40位非凡的地理空间专业人员in 2019.

“ Leica Geosystems非常支持我的职业发展，并且是一个惊人的资源。当我需要时间旅行时，该公司一直在适应我的现场工作;他们协助我与偏远地区的本地销售团队和客户建立联系，以便我可以在本地租用或借用设备进行研究。Even our divisional president regularly asks me about my progress and sends me photos of heritage sites he visits on his holidays,”总结说巴顿。“这要归功于Leica Geosystems对培养，修饰和成长员工的兴趣和兴趣。”
