Dear Colleagues, The 2^nd workshop on *Applications of Computer Vision in Archaeology ACVA'10 -- Vision, Visualization, and Computational Methods to Cultural Heritage Needs*, http://acva2010.cs.drexel.edu, will be held on Sunday June 14^th in San Francisco, in conjunction with the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition <http://www.cvpr2010.org> (IEEE CVPR 2010), San Francisco, CA, June 13-18 2010.
This workshop explores the application of computer vision research, visualization, and computational methods to cultural heritage needs. In specific, it focuses on emerging computer science methods and technologies useful for digitally recording, preserving, and reconstructing archaeological artifacts and for presenting archaeological site interpretations. Archaeologists, cultural heritage preservationists and computer vision, visualization, graphics, and new media practitioners will comprise this forum which is supported by the NSF's cultural heritage research division. The paper submission deadline is March 27^th , 2010, notification of acceptance is April 8^th , 2010, and submission of camera ready papers is April 13^th . In submitting a manuscript to the workshop, the authors acknowledge that no paper substantially similar in content has been submitted to another conference or workshop. *Manuscripts should be in the CVPR paper format*. Papers accepted for the workshop will be allocated *6 pages* in the proceedings, with the option of purchasing up to 2 extra pages for $100 per page.
