Cutting-edge technology for preservation and promotion of Architectural Heritage

Abstract eng:
The article analyses the significance of new technology for preservation, promotion and animation of architectural heritage in Lithuania. Specialized architectural databases of Lithuania were chosen as the subjects of the research as well as the option of their development through international virtual communities. Two key objectives were set during the process of the preparation of the text: first of all, to introduce Lithuanian research-based databases and discuss their functionality and innovation. The major attention will be given to the specifics of the following databases dedicated to architectural heritage: www.autc.lt and www.archimede.lt. The second objective of the present article is to analyse how these databases have become not only data storages, but also certain social phenomena and how it would be possible to combine the activities of national and international virtual communities in the process of heritage animation.
