Abstract
Digital preservation of the extension of cultural heritages supports the applications like information query, virtual exhibition, auxiliary research and surroundings monitoring, etc. Digital management within the context of cultural heritage includes information visualization, virtual analysis, spatial geographic information system, data mining, knowledge discovery, nonimmersion virtual reality, and other technologies. These technologies aim to achieve better protection, research, and promotion of cultural heritages. In terms of protection, digital models contain an enormous rich space, texture, and semantic information, which can be used as a permanent and intact digital copies of cultural heritage. Digital models can be based on the original appearance of an ancient site. The goal is to reproduce and restore the ancient sites to their original forms. In terms of research, with the support of a spatial platform, researchers can quickly and accurately retrieve the relevant documentation information, 2D images, 3D models, and simulate the natural evolution of ancient sites through artificial intelligence and spatial visualization. In terms of promotion, the use of virtual-reality technology to draw 3D site scenes can provide virtual-realistic scenes for visitors. This allows enjoyment the ancient arts more fully. Computer-aided manufacturing systems can help make artistic works and tourist souvenirs with the characteristics of cultural heritage.
