Extension

ESA Project

The City of L’Aquila, after the earthquake of 2009, tried hard to recover the cultural heritage that seemed to have been lost forever, while looking for its own history among the rubble. Hence the need to preserve what has been rebuilt and what has yet to be restored. Therefore the purpose of this Project is to create an end-to-end service for the City of L’Aquila which provides the possibility for the Municipality to enhance both preservation and fruition and diffusion of its cultural heritage. The improvements we pursue are low latency and greater information volume, possibility to map surface deformation, precise georeferencing, possibility to access information and contents which would not be visible otherwise.

SAPIR

International Project

SAPIR extends the power of web searches beyond centralized text and metadata searches to include distributed audio-visual content.
SAPIR aims at breaking this technological barrier by developing a large-scale, distributed P2P architecture that will make it possible to search audio-visual content using the query-by-example paradigm. A common framework for feature extraction from all media contents will be developed for similarity search and ranking along all supported media. To address scalability issues, we will develop a P2P architecture where features can be extracted in one peer and pushed to an indexing peer. The P2P architecture will provide a scalable indexing structure that can be used for multi-feature search.

online accessible cultural heritage content, across media types and languages boundaries.


Mingei

European Project

Mingei explored the possibilities of representing and making accessible both tangible and intangible aspects of craft as cultural heritage (CH). Heritage Crafts (HCs) involve craft artefacts, materials, and tools and encompass craftsmanship as a form of Intangible Cultural Heritage. Intangible HC dimensions include dexterity, know-how, and skilled use of tools, as well as, tradition, and identity of the communities in which they are, or were, practiced. HCs are part of the history and have impact upon the economy of the areas in which they flourish. The significance and urgency to the preservation of HCs is underscored, as several are threatened with extinction.


ARIADNEplus

European Project

Giving the past a future: the integration of archaeological data infrastructures in Europe is vital to ensure researchers are able to search through vast data sets on a specific topic. Building on the success of the previous ARIADNE project, which successfully integrated archaeological data infrastructures in Europe (indexing some 2 million data sets on its portal), this EU-funded ARIADNEplus project will update the data and extend geographic and temporal coverage. Specifically, it will further develop relationships with key stakeholders to cover all of Europe. It will also develop a new data infrastructure embedded in a cloud that will offer the availability of virtual research environments where data-based archaeological research may be carried out. It will also simplify the search process with pre-compiled menus.
