  • The Engine of the Republic: the Presidential Cars PRESENTATION
    The Engine of the Republic: The Presidential Cars PRESENTATION The museum collection The Engine of the Republic – The Presidential Cars came about as a result of a challenge issued by the Museum of Transport and Communications to the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic. The challenge, which was immediately accepted, was to create a permanent exhibit that would make it possible for the public to visit, assembled and preserved, one of the most important collections of cars in the country: those that have been in the service of its presidents since the founding of the Republic, over 100 years ago. This collection also reflects an awareness that the vehicles exhibited here are part of a historical heritage. As such, they are no longer disposed of once decommissioned, but become part of the collection of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic. The job of recording, locating and recovering the cars that were used by the presidents of the Republic, an ongoing task, has been a priority of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic practically since its inception, as already demonstrated by a group of temporary exhibitions: beginning in 2004, to coincide with the opening of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic, and continuing over the course of subsequent years, in Porto, Lisbon, Figueira da Foz and Guimarães. Siting this collection in Porto also contributes to the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic’s aim of decentralising its activity, bringing part of its collection to the north of the country, a region with a great tradition of car collecting.

  • Preserving Geospatial Data
    Technology Watch Report Preserving Geospatial Data Guy McGarva EDINA, University of Edinburgh Steve Morris North Carolina State University (NCSU) Greg Janée University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) DPC Technology Watch Series Report 09-01 May 2009 © 2009 1 Executive Summary: Geospatial data are becoming an increasingly important component in decision making processes and planning efforts across a broad range of industries and information sectors. The amount and variety of data is rapidly increasing and, while much of this data is at risk of being lost or becoming unusable, there is a growing recognition of the importance of being able to access historical geospatial data, now and in the future, in order to be able to examine social, environmental and economic processes and changes that occur over time. The geospatial domain is characterized by a broad range of information types, including geographic information systems data, remote sensing imagery, three- dimensional representations and other location-based information. The scope of this report is limited to two-dimensional geospatial data and data that would typically be considered comparable to paper maps or charts including vector data, raster data and spatial databases. There are a number of significant preservation issues that relate specifically to geospatial data, including: the complexity and variety of data formats and structures; the abundance of content that exists in proprietary formats; the need to maintain the technical and social contexts in which the data exists; and the growing importance of web services and dynamic (and ephemeral) data. Standards for geospatial metadata have been defined at both the national and international levels, yet metadata often becomes dissociated from the data, or is incorrect, non-standard in nature, or not created in the first place.

  • Database Archiving Review
    Project: IST-2006-033789 Planets Deliverable: PA/6-D13 Database Preservation Case Study: Review Mette van Essen, Maurice de Rooij, Bill Roberts, Maurice van den Dobbelsteen National Archives of the Netherlands 12 July 2011 Introduction As part of the PLANETS project, the National Archives of the Netherlands carried out a case study on approaches for long term preservation of databases, published in May 2010 as PLANETS deliverable PA/6-D13. Roughly one year later, the question of how best to maintain long-term access to information held in databases remains an important one for the National Archives of the Netherlands. As a first step towards further work in this area, we carried out a review of the PLANETS case study, triggered in part by participation in the Preservation of Complex Objects Symposium 1 in London in June 2011. This document is a copy of the original PLANETS case study with added commentary to document new developments in thinking, tools and technology. At the end of this document, we have added two new sections, on the use of emulation for database preservation and the possible applications of data warehousing techniques in digital preservation. We have also added a new conclusion, briefly describing what we plan to do next in this area. 1 http://www.openplanetsfoundation.org/events/2011-06-16-pocos-london-symposium Page 1 of 15 Project: IST-2006-033789 Planets Deliverable: PA/6-D13 Project Number IST-2006-033789 Project Title Planets Title of Deliverable Case Study: Database Preservation at the National Archives of the

TachyGIS is an idea to survey archaeological excavations with total station and GIS. Former CAD based approach (with field book and 3D visualization) are transferred to GIS. The idea meets current challenges of total station survey like increased license costs, deficient attribute integration and in- sufficient sustainability (suitability to be archived). Fig. 1. TachyGIS Teaser.(© Goeldner) The presented project idea “TachyGIS” is to transfer features of existing CAD based approach (es- pecially coordinate transfer from total station and 3D visualization) into GIS to meet the above-men- tioned challenges. Therefore, cost reduction is possible with cooperative FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) development, attribution is realized by GIS respectively geodata and sustainability can be achieved by using geodatabases with standard data formats.

  • Developing Cultural Heritage Preservation Databases Based on Dublin Core Data Elements
    Developing cultural heritage preservation databases based on Dublin Core data elements Fenella G. France Art Preservation Services Tel: +1 212 722 6300 x4 [email protected] Michael B. Toth R.B. Toth Associates Tel: +1 703 938 4499 [email protected] Abstract: Preserving our cultural heritage – from fragile historic textiles such as national flags to heavy and seemingly solid artifacts recovered from 9/11 – requires careful monitoring of the state of the artifact and environmental conditions. The standard for a web-accessible textile fiber database is established with Dublin Core elements to address the needs of textile conservation. Dynamic metadata and classification standards are also incorporated to allow flexibility in recording changing conditions and deterioration over the life of an object. Dublin core serves as the basis for data sets of information about the changing state of artifacts and environmental conditions. With common metadata standards, such as Dublin Core, this critical preservation knowledge can be utilized by a range of scientists and conservators to determine optimum conditions for slowing the rate of deterioration, as well as comparative use in the preservation of other artifacts. Keywords: Preservation, cultural heritage, Dublin Core, conservation, deterioration, environmental parameters, preservation vocabularies, textiles, fiber, metadata standards, digital library. 1. Introduction Preserving our cultural heritage for future generations is a critical aspect of the stewardship of historical objects. This requires careful monitoring of the state of the artifact and environmental conditions, and standardized storage of this information to support a range of professionals who play a role in the preservation, storage and display of the artifact – including conservators, scientists, curators, and other cultural heritage professionals.
