Collaborating with Real Ideas
Welcome to the Maritime Library – where history sets sail…
ProMare is partnering with The Devonport Naval Heritage Centre (DNHC), The Box and Real Ideas in utilising 3D scanning technology to create a digital archive of maritime artefacts.
Led by heritage professional Adela Hawley, an expert in curation, conservation, and digital accessibility, and Charlotte Ashcroft-Booth who specialises in digital outreach and engagement, this project aims to make maritime collections accessible online. The goal is to attract a global audience and increase both visits and volunteer involvement at Plymouth’s heritage sites.
