Participants will be introduced to key topics, approaches, and tools, such as working with spatial data, 3D modeling, photogrammetry, data annotation, AI tools, and telling stories with data. Workshop participants will work collaboratively to create 3D, information-enriched visualizations of the early 20th-century Vrysaki neighborhood of Athens before its demolition. This work will draw on a unique collection of historic photographs and maps from the 1930s, created by photographer M. Messinesi and held in听.
