OBJECTIVE
The Technical Committee on Documentation (TC-Doc) is a principal forum for consideration of data collection, use, management, storage, and long-term accessibility as it relates to existing sites, structures, and landscapes.
OVERVIEW
Since its inception in 2013, the vision for the committee is to be a resource available to both providers and primary users of survey and documentation services. Committee members include survey and documentation specialists, architects, engineers, archaeologists, managers, conservation specialists, etc. The TC-Doc is of interest to professionals in the public sector, private sector, and academia.
TC-Doc serves as a forum to discuss, address, and teach about the current tools and methods used in survey and documentation, as well as, to identify collaboration and research opportunities. The different forms of survey and documentation include laser and infrared scanning, imaged-based surveying techniques (e. g. photogrammetry, rectified photography, reflectance transformation imaging, etc.), photography, hand measurement, urban inventory and mapping, resource survey, and other new and emerging tools or methods being used in the industry. The TC-Doc reviews and discuss the industry’s current available software and hardware and evaluates current and best practices in the industry. Current data standards, guidelines, and protocols are addressed with the intent of establishing and promoting data management best practices and standards.
