RESEARCH POSTER PRESENTATION DESIGN © 2019 www.PosterPresentations.com In 2023, Digital Humanities Research Institute at Siberian Federal University starts a working prototype of a research digital infrastructure for the aggregation, preservation, dissemination of Siberian historical and cultural heritage for historical, literary, ethnographic, art history and other kinds of research at the intersection of the humanities and computer sciences — Siberiana.online The aim of the project is to launch a long-term initiative for digitization, analysis, and curation of the different collections of cultural heritage of the Central Siberia (so-called Angara-Yenisei macroregion). The project is designed for research and education needs of the digital humanists at Siberian Federal University and world over, because judging by the current literature Siberian artifacts and collections evoke a steady interest (Kizhner et al, 2021). We took several online resources for benchmarks. Europeana (pro.europeana.eu) is the benchmark for metadata organization, Wikidata (wikidata.org) gives good examples for data identification and linking open data, Global Digital Heritage (GlobalDigitalHeritage.org) is the reference point for cultural and historical objects presentation, and PhotoGrammar(PhotoGrammar.org) is the example we’re focusing on successfully combination of retrieval, analysis, and mapping of the artifacts in different collections. SIBERIANA.online SIBERIANA PROJECT SIBERIANA’S FACETED CLASSIFICATION For the prototype reasons of Siberiana, the following database fields for faceted classification were the obligatory: what (object type), when (time period), where (location), where it is stored (institution), as well as copyright or open license information. Siberiana is plotting as a digital model of the historical, cultural, and natural heritage of the Angara-Yenisei macro-region. Our goal is to unlock the potential of this heritage resources in two dimensions. For all types of users: it's to make such content easily accessible, visually well-presented, conveniently organized, and for researchers: it’s to provide a wide coverage of collections, valuable services for exploratory data analysis, to give a platform for collecting specific research data for a significant agenda (Kizhner et al, 2022). Thus, historical, cultural, and natural heritage should be understood as a resource that allows people to make life interesting, rich, valuable, and in some respects socially significant.
