Google Earth Link to Area (sorry, no models)
As an archaeologist using GIS in the Cultural Resource Management (CRM) industry, my intention is to house my ideas and musings, as well as, produce content of interest to others in the CRM and/or GIS industries. Some content will be original and much will be gathered. Please comment!

Historic Reconstruction with SketchUp
A quick post from a current project. This is a SketchUp interpretation of a historic structure from archaeological field data and historic records. Without going into too much detail, this is a quick image of a reconstructed 19th century paper mill that once stood in front of George Washington’s headquarters in Valley Forge, PA. While Washington was in tenure, the mill works included a Grist Mill and Saw Mill. In the 1840’s the Grist Mill burned and was rebuilt close to the original spot. Then in the 1860’s, the much larger paper mill was constructed, which encompassed the previous structures.The Model of Washington’s Headquarters is accurate to the modern standing reconstruction. Apparently, the building has been remodeled to its historic image at least three times.
