| Background |
| Site Description | Deep in the mudflats of the Indus Delta, this unnamed fort remains submerged most of the year, emerging only during the low tide for a few months. The local name for the site is Jam Jaskar Goth, named after the local chief of the area, however, its historical name and identity remains a mystery. The visible parts of the site include a square shaped fort, a graveyard, a kiln, and a large mosque. Stone slabs with Kufic inscriptions found at the site indicate a possible age around the 13th century.

| Project Description | The Digital Heritage Trails Project (DHTP) involves the documentation of endangered archaeological sites in the Indus Delta region in Southern Pakistan. DHTP has developed high-precision 3D representations, or "digital copies", of these sites to support effective site management, heritage conservation efforts, and climate impact mitigation. The project has also created a digital heritage trail called the "Lost Cities of the Indus Delta". The heritage trail is an exciting and innovative explorative experience, curated to provide a public audience with an online, interactive, and immersive experience, while exploring the rich history of the Indus Delta region.
Photogrametry using a DJI Mavic 3 enterprise with RTK position fixing enabled. Photos were were captured using a 20 MP 4/3 CMOS sensor in RAW (.DNG) format. Objectives were to produce a high resoltion 3D model of the site. |
