This is a specialized research data community for sharing thermographic datasets focused on the detection and analysis of watermarks in historical documents and other paper-based cultural heritage artifacts.
The goal is to support research in cultural heritage studies, conservation science, and non-invasive imaging.
By facilitating access to high-quality, openly available datasets, this community promotes collaboration, reproducibility, and the advancement of infrared thermography methodologies for heritage research. Contributions may include raw and processed thermal images, associated metadata, experimental setups, and related documentation. Researchers, conservators, and institutions working with historical paper materials are invited to contribute and share their data.
