“…The result is freely distributed and can be viewed with any IIIF-compatible viewer. In [2] authors describe an experience of porting a collection of semantically annotated images from a legacy content management system to a new technological stack made of independent open-source software to support the IIIF interoperability standard.…”

“…Semantic wrapping of delivered images is supported as well by the IIIF standard. Cleopatra use cases exploit the IIIF annotation using concepts of a domain ontology and providing the support for indexing and discovering relevant contents by a SPARQL query [2]. Moreover, the annotations of enjoyed contents are stored in the user's profile to make the application context aware with respect to the user's preferences.…”

The availability of interoperability standards allows using a uniform model for integrating technologies and designing collaborating applications with a shared understanding of the exchanged information. In this perspective, we propose here the design and development of an agent-based platform that uses an interoperability framework to build a diffused museum in a cyber-physical system, where intelligent agents deliver cultural content through innovative interaction models. In particular, agents' awareness, natural language understanding capability, and interaction ability are extended through the monitoring of user's interaction with the IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) standard and the integration with IIIF compliant technologies. The scalability of the proposed solution is evaluated stressing the platform with simulated workloads.

“…GitHub, WebVR, The Wild, Unity, Unreal) lead to situations where each development team must start anew instead of building on work by others in the field (Bozzelli et al, 2019;Marto et al, 2022;Zhu, Fong, & Gan, 2022). Furthermore, there remains no international organization to provide interoperable standards for methodological reproducibility and to ensure the longevity of archived files and information (Jacobsen, 2007;Freire et al, 2013;Amato et al, 2022). Complicating the situation further, scholars often work with technicians that have specialized knowledge and training that preclude widespread adoption of their processes (Geng et al, 2022).…”

The use of digital twin technologies to preserve cultural heritage has become increasingly common over the past two decades. Evolving from the use of virtual environments (VE) and digital reconstructions that required multiple phases of workflow and multiple software applications and various hardware to output a useable experience to the immediacy of 3D artificial intelligence (AI) generative content and the latest generation of photogrammetric scanning, non-specialists are now able to more easily create digital twins. At the same time, the destruction of cultural heritage has accelerated due to geopolitical instability, seen in examples such as the invasion of Ukraine by Russia (2022). Even with advances in user-friendly and commercially available technologies, digital art history and the digital humanities are in a race against time to train and equip enough individuals onsite to create digital twins before more irreplaceable cultural artifacts and sites are lost to natural disasters, accelerated by climate change, or through armed conflict. However, there remain no international standards for methodological reproducibility and the techniques used currently by many scholars include specialized training and knowledge. As such, this paper presents a case study that addresses reproducibility and explainability in the digital humanities through a detailed workflow of the creation of a digital twin of Chiesa dei SS Apostoli e Biagio in Florence, Italy. A model is presented that is scalable and leverages widely available, user-friendly 360 cameras and photogrammetry with LiDAR to capture cultural heritage sites with best practices on how to quickly and effectively train non-specialists to create site-specific digital twins of a variety of cultural heritage structures.

“…Despite these technological advances, cultural heritage institutions in different countries are adopting different software, hardware, and development pipelines, making reproducibility, transferability, and interoperability a barrier to international and interinstitutional collaborative efforts. Furthermore, there remains no international organization to provide interoperable standards for methodological reproducibility and to ensure longevity of archived les and information (Jacobsen, 2007;Freire et al, 2013;Amato et al, 2022).
