Technical Specifications for Digital Heritage

Technical specifications for digital heritage refer to the standards and guidelines that ensure digital cultural artifacts—like images, videos, 3D models, and documents—are created, stored, and preserved in a consistent, accessible, and durable way. These specifications cover file formats, metadata, storage media, and preservation processes, aiming to maintain the integrity, authenticity, and usability of cultural heritage over time. By adhering to these standards, institutions can effectively share, protect, and sustain digital representations of cultural artifacts for future generations.
