As I presented in my poster at the last conference (https://hcommons.org/?get_group_doc=1004260/1695454824-TEI2023_poster.pdf), I think TEI now needs to add some attributes to represent 3D coordinate information. Currently, there is no way to represent the Z coordinate, and even for X and Y, existing attributes (@ulx, @uly, @lrx, @lry) are highly 2D-intended and make no sense of using @ul or @lr in a 3D context. Also, we need a system representing the rotation of the objects which is by now not provided by the TEI guideline (may be necessary to think about whether these attributes should be included in att.coordinated though).
Along with that, the description of att.coordinated may have to be modified like “att.coordinated provides attributes that can be used to position their parent element within a two dimensional coordinate system” >> “att.coordinated provides attributes that can be used to position their parent element within a two and three dimensional coordinate system”. Also, we may need to consider modifying or adding some sentences to ’11.1 Digital Facsimile’ to make it compatible with 3D knowledge representation.
