Cultural Heritage Modeling Potential Highlighted by e-Learning Resources

Summary/Abstract: The actual international context of developing people’s digital skills and competences imply using intelligent, adaptive and personalized e-Learning platforms. The latter should come in support of students and represent both an efficient alternative for the individual study and resources for team-work. The purpose of the present paper is to highlight the importance of using an e-Learning resource implemented by Politehnica University Timisoara through which students can load the results of their projects and work. The topicality is given by the novelty of the 3D models realized by students, both individually and by teamwork, for a touristic promotion of Timisoara municipality in the context of competing and winning the title for “European capital of culture” initiative. Moreover, the authors propose implementing a spatial data geoportal at Local Administration level using EU non‐refundable funds that could be a smart solution for managing secure and valuable property based on Internet of Things meant to reinforce Europe's cultural diversity by making our heritage and our cultural creations available to a wider number of citizens. One of the strategies developed by the European Commission refers to Digital Single Market and includes tasks such as investing on network and technologies by funding research that enables new technologies like 5G and IoT. The aim is to benefit European citizens with fast and accessible Internet for the future and make cities more sustainable in view of Europe's 2020 targets. Romania, as a member state, has aligned its priorities to the EU and is constantly trying to develop smart solutions in the interest areas that also permit funds attracting. In particular, Timișoara Municipality has set its goal to become one of Europe’s smart cities and communities, thus developing (among others) a cultural strategy for 2014 – 2024.
