Global Survey Findings on 3D Digitisation in Cultural Heritage [Jan 22, online, 13:00 CET]

Global Survey Findings on 3D Digitisation in Cultural Heritage [Jan 22, online, 13:00 CET]

In cooperation with Heritage Malta, the IIIF and the EU eArchiving Initiative, the newly established Research Center MNEMOSYNE at the UNESCO Chair on Digital Cultural Heritage present the final results of the 2025 Worldwide Survey on 3D Data Acquisition and Digitisation in Cultural Heritage. This event, offered free of charge, provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of the art in a field of critical importance to Humanity, focusing on the documentation, protection, preservation, and use and reuse of cultural heritage data, medatata and paradata. 

It further offers a critical assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of this domain, clearly articulating the necessity of digitising the past.

The results demonstrate how cultural heritage digitisation contributes to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), while simultaneously advancing scientific knowledge, supporting evidence-based heritage management, and creating long-term value for future generations. 

Moreover, the event seeks to reassess current knowledge and to articulate a clear framework for interdisciplinary collaboration, highlighting how diverse professional communities must work together to ensure the effective safeguarding and sustainable management of the material and immaterial legacy of our past.
