What Technological means make viable the valuation of cultural heritage (Remote Sensing, GIS, GPS, Geobrowser...)? What are the Agents in the territory and how they value the digital representations of their associated cultural heritage (technical, public, opinion/decision makers)?

What Technological means make viable the valuation of cultural heritage (Remote Sensing, GIS, GPS, Geobrowser...)? What are the Agents in the territory and how they value the digital representations of their associated cultural heritage (technical, public, opinion/decision makers)? What are the different Domains of valuation concerning cultural heritage digitally represented (technical-scientific, social-economic, political-administrative, ideological-symbolic-religious)?

13 3. Objectives Main research objective The thesis seeks to demonstrate that the digital representation augments distinctively the valuation of cultural heritage through the technology resources, the perspectives of the agents and the contributions for the different domains.

14 3. Objectives Secondary objectives Recognize acquisition techniques and methods of heritage representations, considering their advantages and disadvantages; Identify multi-sources of pertinent information and delineating structures of datasets and databases of information; Research the potential to divulgate and use cultural heritage dematerialized (digital/virtual); Develop several examples/case studies of approaches to represent virtually the cultural heritage (such as structures with architectonic value, monuments or urban settlements)

15 3. Objectives Secondary objectives Recognise the principal agents associated to cultural heritage; Diagnose the value recognized from those agents addressed to the examples of heritage representations developed; Comprehend the main usability of technology applied to the several domains (associated with cultural heritage) and analyze the potential increased value through the digital representation.
