The materiality case study was presented in the form of a poster at the second NFDI4Objects Community Meeting in Mainz. Jan-Malte Döring-Quaas, Simon Albers and Ivonne Kaiser presented the collections in the focus of the case study, the process of object digitization and the experiences and analysis possibilities gained in the process under the title “Materiality in space and time: metrological and cultural-historical challenges in the context of 3D digitization”. In addition to participating in workshops on 3D digitization in cultural heritage and the systematic storage and dissemination of research data, the conference enabled a productive exchange with other experts.
