At that site, porcelain manufacturing can be traced back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. This trip will involve some experimentation with LiDAR and drone mapping. Data about this area can help support our experiments with XR technologies applied to studying and learning about the human past. This will be a hiking tour that combines archaeology, modern technology, and natural scenery. By participating in this challenging journey, you can develop your imagination and share your ideas and passions. Let the adventure begin!
