Ancient digging and processing of mineral resources had a long-lasting impact on the environment in the Eastern Alps which is still visible today. From the archaeological view extensive surveys and mapping are necessary to reconstruct the prehistoric copper production-industry as well as the relation between the archaeological sites, the ore-deposits and the landscape. One of the main questions to resolve will be the exact dating of the prehistoric mining and smelting-sites in the study area. A further basic objective is to resolve the question of specialization of the Bronze Age copper production. Archaeobotanical research questions addressing the onset and the duration of ore mining in the research area is a highly desirable necessity for the mining history of the Eastern Alps. In this approach a peat deposit on the Kelchalm (1762...

The 3D models of the Schachermeyr sherd collection are one of the many resources that will be integrated into the database. The present contribution focuses on these 3D models and their metadata and on how they are contextualized within the DEFC App database and beyond. Additionally, we discuss the 3D model provenance metadata that should accompany the 3D models in order to assure their transparency.
