On the left side, you see the metadata, including archaeologists taking part in the excavation, contexts documented, 3D models produced, and resources linked.

On the right, you can explore the excavation progress in the 3D canvas. Through the menu on the right corner, you can make the 3D models and contexts visible and invisible; on the 3D models, you can remove the texture and make them transparent.
