Preliminary Ideas for a Project on Cultural Heritage: 'Heva'-Digital Resources Optimization for the Enhancement of Cultural Heritage

摘要

Cultural Heritage documentation by itself is meaningless if it does not help to create wealth and provide values to society. In recent years, the number of digital contents related to cultural heritage resources is growing in a way that it very difficult to discover reliable information. Thanks to the Internet they can be easily published and distributed but there are three main problems: 1) the quality of the resources is not well evaluated or tagged; 2) the resources are fragmented across several non-linked repositories; 3) most of the resources are not adapted to different kinds of devices and users. These problems are more remarkable in point clouds and three dimensional models digitalized at high resolution, to achieve a higher level of detail because they are too heavy for visualization, transmission and representation. The present statement of intentions aims to develop a project -HEVA: HEritage VAlue- for creating an effective methodology to simplify and improve the exploitation and transmission of cultural heritage documentation in the three most relevant fields: culture, education and economy. The main goal of the project is to reformulate the objective of cultural heritage documentation from a sustainable perspective, linking the efforts to the achievements and optimizing the processes. At the same time, the project will create synergies between multiple agents involved in documentation, allowing an intelligent diffusion of cultural heritage such that heritage can reach interested people, people who really want to be reached. 3.1
