Diseño y maquetación: Alfredo Candela ISBN 978-84-120406-5-4 Depósito legal: SE:1767-2020 Foreword The TIDE Toolkit is a fundamental output of the Atlantic Network for Developing Historical Maritime Tourism project funded by the Interreg Atlantic Area programme. The toolkit has been developed to address the programme’s priority of ‘Enhancing biodiversity and the natural and cultural assets’ with the main objective of enhancing natural and cultural assets to stimulate economic development. The TIDE project focuses on the sustainable development of onshore and underwater sites of historical interest on the Atlantic Area coastline. The project outputs will aid organisations & practitioners in the Atlantic region tourism development sector to develop new tourism products. With a focus on maritime history in the Atlantic regions, the sites can relate to shipwrecks, ports, battles, trade, forts, migrations, castles and invasions. A key aspect of the project is creation of new networked tourism products based on rediscovering historical connections between regions on the Atlantic. Digitised content and digital transformation technologies such as AR & VR will be used to enhance and enrich the visitor experiences that are developed. The core TIDE partnership is composed of a transnational collective of public and private entities including local & regional governments, universities, tourism specialists and digital technology specialists from regions within the Atlantic Area. These regions include various locations in Ireland, Spain, France, Madeira, United Kingdom and Canada. The cooperative is working together to develop and market new types of multi-regional historical maritime niche tourist packages and visitor attractions for the Atlantic by sharing cultural assets across regions, supported by new technologies and transnational collaboration tools. Together, the partnership aims to a) develop the collaborative digital tools to enable regions to create niche transnational maritime tourism packages based on sharing historical assets; b) create a new breed of maritime cultural visitor attraction by using virtual reality and archaeology techniques to connect to real historical sites; and c) amplify the impact and sustainability of TIDE by stimulating the use of the approach and tools across the Atlantic area. The experience and expertise of this group have ensured that the Toolkit is rooted in practical realities and the requirements of the end users. Historical assets and sites face many challenges to their integrity which, unless addressed can erode the outstanding value for which they were considered significant. 5 Those responsible for development and promotion of historical assets are charged with the complex task of anticipating and dealing with these challenges, most often in an environment of limited financial and organizational capacity. Under these circumstances, it is incumbent upon them to invest their efforts in the most critical areas, ensuring that available resources are applied to their maximum effectiveness, whilst protecting the assets they wish to share. The TIDE Toolkit contains a collection of good practices, knowledge, methods & tools to aid historical site identification and tourism product development. It contains a series of exercises designed to help those responsible for development and promotion of these sites to piece together the elements of a comprehensive management framework. This framework outlines a strategy that ranges from initial site identification, to creation of a narrative, environmental preservation, and enhancement using digital transformation technologies to enrich visitor experiences. It is structured as targeted chapters offering examples and guidelines, followed by exploratory exercises. Each possesses an emphasis on user-friendliness, flexibility, and adaptability to local realities. The application of these tools can aid tourism and heritage practitioners to effectively deal with some of their major development and management challenges. Our aim is to help those involved in the management of historical assets to improve their capacities and reach their management objectives for the benefit of the global community.

  • Contribution to the Lepidoptera Fauna of the Madeira Islands Part 2
    Beitr. Ent. Keltern ISSN 0005 - 805X 51 (2001) 1 S. 161 - 213 14.09.2001 Contribution to the Lepidoptera fauna of the Madeira Islands Part 2. Tineidae, Acrolepiidae, Epermeniidae With 127 figures Reinhard Gaedike and Ole Karsholt Summary A review of three families Tineidae, Epermeniidae and Acrolepiidae in the Madeira Islands is given. Three new species: Monopis henderickxi sp. n. (Tineidae), Acrolepiopsis mauli sp. n. and A. infundibulosa sp. n. (Acrolepiidae) are described, and two new combinations in the Tineidae: Ceratobia oxymora (MEYRICK) comb. n. and Monopis barbarosi (KOÇAK) comb. n. are listed. Trichophaga robinsoni nom. n. is proposed as a replacement name for the preoccupied T. abrkptella (WOLLASTON, 1858). The first record from Madeira of the family Acrolepiidae (with Acrolepiopsis vesperella (ZELLER) and the two above mentioned new species) is presented, and three species of Tineidae: Stenoptinea yaneimarmorella (MILLIÈRE), Ceratobia oxymora (MEY­ RICK) and Trichophaga tapetgella (LINNAEUS) are reported as new to the fauna of Madeira. The Madeiran records given for Tsychoidesfilicivora (MEYRICK) are the first records of this species outside the British Isles. Tineapellionella LINNAEUS, Monopis laevigella (DENIS & SCHIFFERMULLER) and M. imella (HÜBNER) are dele­ ted from the list of Lepidoptera found in Madeira. All species and their genitalia are figured, and informa­ tion on bionomy is presented. Zusammenfassung Es wird eine Übersicht über die drei Familien Tineidae, Epermeniidae und Acrolepiidae auf den Madeira Inseln gegeben. Die drei neuen Arten Monopis henderickxi sp. n. (Tineidae), Acrolepiopsis mauli sp. n. und A. infundibulosa sp. n. (Acrolepiidae) werden beschrieben, zwei neue Kombinationen bei den Tineidae: Cerato­ bia oxymora (MEYRICK) comb.
