Conference Proceeding
Cheshmehzangi, A., Adkins, D., & Ch’ng, E. (2015). Capturing the Realities through Digital Preservation and Scanning Techniques: The case of ZouMaTang Ancient Village, China.

In China, many villages are facing severe decline and deprivation and some are even replaced or reallocated over time. In recent years, the effects from rapid pace of urbanisation on rural areas has been so significant and at such large scale that ru...
