Digital Photography and Geographical Information in the Web 2.0: A Quality Evaluation of the Contents

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 7546))

Abstract

We present the results of the evaluation of the cultural heritage through the Web 2.0 related to digital pictures and geographical information, inside Google Maps, in Córdoba City –Argentina. The area of analysis belongs to a geographic region with a rich presence of cultural and natural heritage, some of it belonging to UNESCO, consequently with a centennial touristic tradition. Some quality attributes have also been defined for the online multimedia systems, coupled with real examples. Finally, we reveal the double intentions (profit and worldwide circulation) inside the free software.
