Through the Eyes of Visitors: Understanding the Contexts of the Visitor Photo Study at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science

This case study describes the analysis of the Visitor Photo Study, a study in which visitors to the Denver Museum of Nature & Science documented their visit through pictures. The origins, implementation, and findings of the Visitor Photo Study are considered within the contexts of the fields of Community-Based Research (Strand, Marullo, Cutforth, Stoecker, & Donohue, 2003b), Visual Studies (Marshall & Rossman, 2011; Pink, 2007), and Visitor Studies (Visitor Studies Association, 2012). This study considers the extent to which the principles and elements of each of these fields were present in the Visitor Photo Study, which elements were not fully realized or were missing from the study, and ways in which the Visitor Photo Study extends each of these fields. The value of this type of analysis and implications for museums, faculty, and students are also discussed.

Integration of Building into Nature for the Valles Caldera National Preserve Visitor Center

Valles Caldera National Preserve, located in northern New Mexico, has an opportunity to implement sustainable design concepts while demonstrating long-term financial sustainability in the design of its new visitor center. This building can be designed to use natural systems to provide energy and water, and to blend in with the setting‰Ûªs unique historical and natural landscape. Structures can be integrated into nature by incorporating common techniques, features, and materials of a particular period, area, or people. This analysis identified capital costs for both traditional and sustainable construction techniques, as well as long-term operational costs. The results demonstrate that capital costs of sustainable design that is integrated into the landscape can be comparable to conventional costs and provide long-term operational costs savings.

Technologies for Anatomical and Geometric Characterization of the Corneal Structure and Anterior Segment: A Review

Corneal and anterior segment imaging techniques have become a crucial tool in the clinical practice of ophthalmology, with a great variety of applications, such as corneal curvature and pachymetric analysis, detection of ectatic corneal conditions, anatomical study of the anterior segment prior to phakic intraocular lens implantation, or densitometric analysis of the crystalline lens. From the Placido-based systems that allow only a characterization of the geometry of the anterior corneal surface to the Scheimpflug photography-based systems that provide a characterization of the cornea, anterior chamber, and crystalline lens, there is a great variety of devices with the capability of analyzing different anatomical parameters with very high precision. To date, Scheimpflug photography-based systems are the devices providing the more complete analysis of the anterior segment in a non-invasive way. More developments are required in anterior segment imaging technologies in order to improve the analysis of the crystalline lens structure as well as the ocular structures behind the iris in a non-invasive way when the pupil is not dilated.
