Calculating vessel capacities

Archaeologists from the CReA-Patrimoine have joined their forces with computer engineers from the Laboratoire de l’Image : Synthèse et Analyse (LISA) to develop a computer tool to calculate the capacity of vessel based on its scale drawing.

In an extremely simple way, in a web interface, the user can virtually fill the container whose design he has sent and, by means of a cursor, adjust the filling. The precise volume is displayed in real time.

The application is freely accessible online:

This application was developed by Laurent Engels, Rudy Ercek and Nadine Warzée  (LISA, Faculté des Sciences appliquées) in collaboration with CReA-Patrimoine, as part of a collaborative research action 2004-2009 funded by the French Community of Belgium.
