ABOUT THE PROJECT

Project "From Raw Collection to Digital Collection" (RCtoDC) addresses the need to enrich the Common European data space for cultural heritage by creating advanced 3D and XR technologies and standards and to advance the digital transformation of cultural heritage institutions. It aims to contribute new collections comprising artifacts that are in need of preservation from natural disasters. The project will provide a Toolkit for 3D digitisation and XR solutions for online experiences, thus increasing the digital capacity of the stakeholders in cultural sectors. The project covers actions for cultural preservation and the advancement of digitalisation across Europe.

The project involves cross-border cooperation of Croatian, Slovenian and Austrian project partners.

General objectives are:

• Digitize cultural heritage artefacts at risk and make them available to the public through the use of 3D and XR technologies
• Create a Toolkit for 3D and XR digitization
• Offer online and on-site trainings for CHIs and other stakeholders
• Two new collections on Europeana, one of baroque sculptures by Francesco Robba and one of baroque objects from Croatia and Slovenia
• Equalizing digitization across Europe
