{{Infobox tool details}}
== Description ==
3DHOP is a free JavaScript framework for displaying 3D models online. The interface can be customised in a variety of ways allowing users to have various degrees of control over the models and access to tools (hotspots, measurement, point picking, sectioning).

Using JavaScript, it requires no specialist server set up although files must be converted to the Nexus (NXS or compressed NXZ) format for display. A tool for converting files from PLY and OBJ format is freely available.

== User Experiences ==
The 3DHOP website contains a number of developer and third-party examples along with tutorials for various aspects of the viewer.

 It is supported by the French Infrastructure [https://www.huma-num.fr/ Huma-Num] for the safe and secure storage part of the tool.
 The CND3D tool is used to make deposits of 3D objects but also to discover them in the advanced search module and visualize them in 3D online.

===Features===
* Creation of deposit with its metadata
* Creation of 3D object information with metadata inside a deposit
* Online Enrichment of 3D object metadata with interoperable thesaurus tag of [https://pactols.frantiq.fr/opentheso/ PACTOLS' frantiq]
* DOI assignement on each deposit
* DOI assignement on each 3D object
* 3D object visualization with potree or 3DHOP
* Creation of collection of 3D objects with reusable url for example [https://3d.humanities.science/collection/Technoth%C3%A8que La technothèque]
* Cross referencement of 3D objects or deposit with any [https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr HAL publication]

PLY (Polygon File Format), also Stanford polygon file format is used for three-dimensional meshes. For details see http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/ply/, https://www.loc.gov/preservation/digital/formats/fdd/fdd000501.shtml
The format has two versions: a pure ASCII format and a binary version.

{{Infobox tool details}}
== Description ==

Tool for processing of 3D data. Supported tasks:
* mesh decimation
* creation of UV coordinates
* map baking
* file conversion

The Cook provides a simplified interface for about a dozen processing tools. With recipes, processing workflows can be defined for batch processing a set of files with multiple tools.

The Cook is implemented as a Node.js server and can be controlled via web API, a web user interface, or via command line tool.

Supported tools are listed on a dedicated [https://smithsonian.github.io/dpo-cook/tools/overview/ documentation page].

== Description ==

With Smithsonian Voyager 3D data kept in a digital archive can be disseminated, i.e. directly viewed online.

Smithsonian Voyager comes with a set of tools for 3D:
* Voyager Story - quality control, authoring of presentations, annotations, articles, tours
* Voyager Explorer - feature-rich 3D viewer component
* Voyager Mini - bare-bone 3D viewer component, optimized for size and loading speed

It requires data in a dedicated format: SVX; While the format is modelled upon glTF, it is an individual format.
