DESCRIPTION:Imagine visiting one of the WWII Wartime Relocation Authority c
 oncentration camps\, looking at what is today a barren landscape but being
  able to see on a handheld device a computer-generated image of what used 
 to be In the very spot that you are looking at. Not only that\, but imagin
 e being able to hear the voice of a former internee describing what life w
 as like when people were imprisoned there.\n\nWe are excited to announce t
 hat CyArk\, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the digital preservation
  of cultural heritage sites\, will be at JAMsj on March 16\, presenting th
 e results of its 2011 grant program to digitally preserve and virtually re
 construct the confinement sites of Manzanar\, Topaz\, and Tule Lake. CyArk
  has used the latest in 3D technology to capture the historic remains of t
 he three sites. Working in partnership with the National Park Service and 
 independent researchers\, CyArk used historic information and its own rece
 ntly captured 3D data to develop comprehensive historic models of the thre
 e camps. Each camp was digitally reconstructed to include the unique eleme
 nts of each site\, including gardens and other landscape features.\n &nbsp
 \; \n CyArk's presentation will explain the process used to develop the mo
 dels\, including an explanation of the latest technology used in the proje
 ct. The presentation will feature a live demonstration of the models and v
 arious interpretive elements soon available to the public. It will also de
 monstrate how to access the robust database of information developed durin
 g the project.\n\nCyArk is a 501c3 nonprofit organization based in Oakland
 \, California. CyArk's mission is the digital preservation of the world's 
 important monuments and sites. It works to ensure that these tangible test
 aments to human history will not be lost to future generations.\n &nbsp\;\
