NF 86720 57315 The ACCORD (Archaeology Community Co-production Of Research Data) Project was an Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) funded research project led by the Digital Design Studio (Glasgow School of Art), with the University of Manchester, RCAHMS and Archaeology Scotland, which worked with 10 community groups across Scotland from October 2013 to March 2015. The project aimed to co-design and co-produce 3D digital data of heritage sites that are of significance to the community groups and which they wished to record.

The ACCORD team worked with the Access Archaeology Group based in the Uists from the 18–20 August 2014. Together we recorded and modelled the Grimsay Wheelhouse, North Uist. Additionally we modelled and recorded the remains of an early medieval chapel and a cross-slab at Howmore, South Uist (NF 7581 3647). We used both the techniques of Reflectance Transformation Imaging and photogrammetry.
