3D-data Runstenar i Medelpad 3D-data Runestones in Medelpad

This dataset includes 3D-models of 11th century runestones 3D-scanned for a study within the research project Evighetsrunor: en forskningsplattform för Sveriges runinskrifter (Everlasting Runes: a research platform for Sweden's runic inscriptions) and as a preparation for a corpus publication about runic inscriptions in Medelpad. The signum M + number is an ID-code used in the record of runic inscriptions kept by Runverket at the Swedish National Heritage Board.

The signum is used in most publications and web-based resources. It is the key to find further references on a specific runic inscription and the object carrying it. The 3D-scanning was made by Henrik Zedig, Länsstyrelsen Västra Götaland, with a handheld laser scanner HandySCAN BLACK ELITE (blue laser) from Creaform with a resolution of 0.40 mm.
