3D Technologies to Safeguard Cultural Heritage

Workshop for in-depth exploration of how advanced 3D technologies are shaping the future of cultural heritage.

The workshop “3D Technologies to Safeguard Cultural Heritage” offers an in-depth exploration of how advanced 3D technologies are shaping the future of cultural heritage preservation, accessibility, and reuse across Europe.

Organised within the framework of the 3DBigDataSpace Project, the workshop brings together researchers, cultural heritage professionals, students, and technology experts to discuss current developments at the intersection of heritage, data, and innovation.

The programme combines theoretical perspectives, practical workflows, and ongoing European initiatives connected to the Common European Data Space for Cultural Heritage. Participants will gain insight into how emerging technologies and interoperable infrastructures can support more connected, accessible, and reusable digital heritage ecosystems.

The agenda includes sessions on:

3D digitisation methods and documentation workflows
Large-scale cultural heritage data management
Interoperability, metadata standards, and data reuse
AI-supported enrichment and analysis of cultural heritage data
Immersive and interactive technologies for cultural heritage
Applications of 3D technologies in research, tourism, education, and public engagement
European digital infrastructures and the role of data spaces in the heritage sector
Current challenges and opportunities in safeguarding cultural heritage through digital technologies

In addition to expert presentations and discussions, the workshop creates opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange between the cultural heritage and technology sectors. Participants will be able to engage with current case studies, practical examples, and ongoing European research and innovation activities.

The workshop is particularly relevant for cultural heritage professionals, researchers, students, developers, and anyone interested in digital heritage, 3D technologies, AI, and data-driven cultural innovation.

We warmly encourage participation and invite interested attendees to join the discussion on the future of digital cultural heritage in Europe.
