Description

The use of digital twin (DT) technology in cultural heritage preservation introduces revolutionary possibilities by creating real-time, dynamic digital replicas of physical cultural assets. These digital twins enable precise monitoring, simulation, and preservation efforts, providing a deeper understanding of heritage sites and artifacts. DT allows for enhanced conservation strategies by simulating environmental changes, wear and tear, or other risks, offering valuable insights into preservation needs. Additionally, DT improves accessibility by allowing virtual exploration of heritage sites, making them available to a global audience and preserving them digitally for future generations. This technology bridges the gap between physical heritage and digital innovation, ensuring the long-term protection and accessibility of cultural assets, while also providing new opportunities for research, education, and public engagement.
