This presentation by Riccardo Ferrante discusses new solutions for dealing with Arctic cultural heritage. It emphasizes the importance of effective archiving methods, including the use of the OAIS reference model, multiple metadata standards (EAD, EAC-CPF, NCD, MODS), and the role of crowdsourcing in transcription efforts. The challenges posed by multiple sovereignties in the Arctic are also addressed, along with the incorporation of advanced technologies such as 3D visualization and Linked Open Data to enhance accessibility and engagement.

Considering new solutions for Arctic cultural heritage Arctic Archives 2013 Riccardo Ferrante @raferrante
Capture…Transform…Archive…Supplement…Re-use OAIS reference model – functional perspective
Capture Keep wide variance in physical infrastructure Easy to consume formats (low tech format?) Expanded variety of tools to create Facilitates initial storage and transmission Descriptive metadata
…Transform ** see previous slide if the starting point is analog** Application of multiple standards -EAD, EAC-CPF, NCD, MODS -Provide structure -Persistence of content at additional levels -Prepare for re-use at a variety of levels
…Archive Perhaps the thorniest challenge when dealing with multiple sovereignties
…Supplement Crowdsourcing* transcriptions
…Re-use (Awareness first) • Contribute (active) • Target constituencies via standards • Linked Open Data • Provide more inroads • Finding Aids embedding • 3-D technology, enriched viewers
Virtual Research Environments Applying hard science strategies to cultural heritage
