Works request : Data acquisition (scanner)

Project title

External requester to the MNHN

List of participants

It is imperative that the project leader (researcher, curatorial manager, doctoral student, master, external, etc.) is the one who carries out the data analysis work and the research work (or the museum exploitation) that results from it. (thus ensuring optimum demand for surface acquisition specificities).

Scientific project

Summary of the scientific project for this request (200 words maximum)

The summary may, for selected projects, be posted on the website of the platform and in the dissemination documents produced by the platform.

Contributions of the method (200 words maximum)

Details on the interests of surface analysis for your project? Which structures do you want to highlight (area of interest)? What types of post-processing analysis will be used?

Project framework (200 words maximum)

Explanations on the broader framework in which the project fits (Master, Thesis, funded research program (ANR, ERC, PICS, etc.), preventive conservation, exhibition, restoration, etc.).

Study material

Material and methods (500 words maximum, indicate the original collection of the specimens and, if applicable, the MNHN collection number)

Details of the material to be analyzed (number and size of specimens *, provide photographs *), if possible estimate of technical requirements (number of scans or any known acquisition parameters, refer to Surfaçus). An exhaustive description of the study material is essential to the choice of the best parameters of surface analysis and to the estimation of the time of digitization and the cost of the service. For MNHN specimens, the inventory number is required.

Total number of specimens

Specimens from MNHN collections

Collection code Catalog number inside the chosen collection

You will not be able to submit your project if the inventory number is wrong or does not exist (please contact the relevant curatorial manager if the number is not valid). Examples: HA then D-2, HA then D-1-bis

Specimens external to the MNHN

Full inventory number

No checks are made for these inventory numbers

Administrative information

3D file format

In what format do you want to receive the scanned files?

Additional information

Attach a file

Please attach a single file (preferably in pdf format, maximum size 64 MB) containing photographs of the specimen(s) to be digitized in all relevant orientations; and possibly any other complementary information (previous experiences, methodologies used, problems related to the handling of the object, etc.).
