Abstract

Managing information related to cultural heritage sites is an important task and much work has been devoted to developing special purpose document management systems. These systems are able to store and retrieve large amounts of documents; however, while this is adequate for some purposes, it is not sufficient for research and conservation work. Researchers need to determine relationships between data, and the most important relationships in cultural heritage information are spatial relationships. A new kind of information system is therefore needed, in which the 3D representation of an object is a blackboard on which all data is represented. This paper proposes the concept of Cultural Heritage Information Systems, and presents our implementation of the system. An example application illustrating the use of the system is also presented.
