Abstract

The paper describes a prototype system based on Google Earth that can display cultural heritage data superimposed on the landscape. The prototype employs OAI-PMH protocol (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting) to connect to data repositories. This work is part of the multi-disciplinary ParSJAd project and involves IBACN (Emilia-Romagna Regional Directorate for Cultural Heritage) DIPARCH (Archaeological Department, University of Bologna) and Cineca Interuniversity consortium.
