Digital heritage can take many forms, from databases to 3D models, but all are computerbased materials that have an enduring value that should be kept for future generations. The digital heritage content can come from a variety of communities, industries, sectors, and regions (UNESCO 2017) and be formed by a diverse range of technologies. Here are several of the projects identified through this research highlighting the different technologies applied.
