The EU H2020 ERA Chair ‘Mnemosyne Project’ is a monobeneficiary unique five-year EU-funded programme (2019-2023) coordinated by the Digital Heritage Research Laboratory (DHRLab) at Cyprus University of Technology (CUT). The project focuses on the investigation of the Holistic Documentation life cycle for Digital Cultural Heritage (tangible and intangible) and its presentation to a variety of users/professionals.
The workshop
The workshop will aim to discuss and showcase state-of-the-art methods in digitally recording movable and immovable cultural heritage taking into account the recent advancements in the field. Six key speakers will present their original projects, ideas, vision and results relevant to topics covered by a holistic documentation approach. Topics will include data capture, modelling formats such as BIM, HBIM, HHBIM, data standards, -quality, -preservation, -standardizations, -management and use/re-use.
The workshop aims at bringing Digital Cultural Heritage researchers and practitioners together in order to discuss recent advances, challenges and future opportunities in the fields of data capture in relation to knowledge management and data management. Both hardware and software innovations and methodological developments will be presented and discussed, balancing theoretical issues with practical demonstrations and discussions. The workshop will thus help to understand better the current issues and difficulties to identify new co-operations, solutions and future opportunities for meeting these challenges.

This year’s annual meeting of the Working Group for Digital Strategy Development is titled “Museum Responses to the COVID 19 Pandemic.” The Working Group’s three teams (“Strategy Comparison/Best Practice Analysis,” “Stakeholder Analysis,” and “Checklist Development”) will discuss how museums have reacted to the current pandemic in their digital environments, and how the COVID-19 crisis has affected the writing of digital strategies. Changes in the digital strategy’s stakeholder environment will be identified and evaluated. Consequences for the development of the working group’s central digital strategy checklist, such as the need for the inclusion of home office solutions, etc., will be reasoned.

Wednesday 9.12.2020 14:00 – 16:00 EODEM Vendors
This session is not recorded. The results of the meeting will be reported in CIDOC AGM and in the CIDOC webpages (Documentation Standards WG, EODEM)
Target audience: representatives of software providers that are interested in implementing EODEM in their systems.
Vendors are asked to contact Rupert Shepherd to obtain the link to attend.
Project lead Rupert Shepherd will present the results of the CIDOC Documentation Standards Working Group’s EODEM project, in the form of the EODEM 1.0 LIDO profile, implemented using LIDO 1.1. We will then open the floor to a discussion between participants, intended to draw up a roadmap for the initial implementation of EODEM in several collections management systems, review at least some of the foreseeable challenges that will inevitably arise, and – ideally – identify some possible solutions. Working Group member (and previous Chair) Richard Light will be on hand to give some first-hand insights into implementing EODEM in the Modes collections management system.

Monday 7.12.2020 16:15 – 18:15 EODEM Intro
* This session will be recorded and made available later on the conference pages.
Target audience: Open to all interested, newcomers welcome.
In a normal year, museum staff manually copy the details of thousands of objects from their databases and send them to other museums that wish to borrow those objects. The borrowing museums’ staff then manually copy those details back into their own systems. The CIDOC Documentation Standards Working Group’s EODEM project aims to make the whole process much quicker and simpler, by establishing a framework that will enable museum databases to export an object’s data from one system at the press of a button, and import that data into another system as easily as possible.
Working Group Chair Maija Ekosaari describes how this all got started. Project lead Rupert Shepherd explains how it will work, and some of the challenges encountered along the way. Working group member (and previous Chair) Richard Light will join the discussion with some insights into implementing EODEM.
Facilitators: Rupert Shepherd, Richard Light, Maija Ekosaari
Tuesday 8.12.2020 14:00 – 16:00 EODEM & LIDO
* This session will be recorded and made available later on the conference pages.
Target audience: those interested in creating their own LIDO profile
Despite collaborating for several months, this will be the first formal get-together of the EODEM project and the LIDO Working group. The aim of the meeting is to briefly introduce the EODEM project and the LIDO profile it has created and to discuss more generally the opportunities for developing profiles within the updated framework of LIDO v1.1.
Project Lead Rupert Shepherd and LIDO Chair Regine Stein will share what the two groups learnt from the co-operation: what brought results, and what would they would do differently. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and work together to find the answers.
Facilitators: Regine Stein, Rupert Shepherd, Richard Light TBC
