(upbeat music)
[00:00:02.899]
And you would link to it,
[00:00:04.411]
and you can look at the images
[00:00:06.125]
of all the different artifacts.
[00:00:08.135]
So basically this is a web application
[00:00:10.459]
that's optimized for mobile viewing.
[00:00:13.044]
I did it for the National Park Service.
[00:00:14.606]
I was really fortunate enough to get an internship.
[00:00:17.570]
My research is mostly based in Ohio,
[00:00:20.132]
particularly the Ohio Hopewell culture.
[00:00:22.263]
It was excavated in the late 1800s.
[00:00:24.736]
And so I'm working with the field museum
[00:00:26.868]
to bring together a lot of the data that was collected,
[00:00:29.792]
a lot of artifacts, and put it back into the site,
[00:00:32.491]
and understand how people excavated,
[00:00:35.158]
and then drive new interpretations.
[00:00:37.914]
I chose Nebraska particularly for digital
[00:00:39.960]
culture heritage applications.
[00:00:42.313]
I've been able to learn a lot of tools like
[00:00:44.163]
photogrammetry, creating 3-D visual models.
[00:00:47.123]
Once it was in the GIS and you bring it into Sketchup...
[00:00:49.983]
My anthropology degree, I think will take me
[00:00:52.559]
either into the public sector.
[00:00:54.248]
A lot of working with museums,
[00:00:55.472]
developing cultural heritage applications.
[00:00:57.856]
Also working for the National Park Service.
[00:00:59.870]
(laughs) OK.
[00:01:00.943]
And I think it's a very collaborative atmosphere.
[00:01:02.858]
I mean, I work a lot with professors,
[00:01:05.866]
I have several kind of advisors.
[00:01:08.433]
The departments supports my goals by providing
[00:01:11.347]
feedback, by offering me opportunities
[00:01:13.555]
as a graduate teaching assistant,
[00:01:15.455]
and also providing a community of other students
[00:01:19.438]
who are kind of living the same life as you.
