Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a concurrent implementation of sustainable inventory for the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Bat, Al-Khutm and Al-Ayn in the interior of Oman. Design/methodology/approach – A digital heritage inventory (DHI) was developed through an action research to realize demands of the local agent and to co-design the solution. The Ministry of Heritage and Culture of Oman, the local agent, demanded to have archaeological information of the sites shared with foreign expeditions, which had worked at the sites for decades, for efficient heritage management, scientific research, outreach, and education. To this end, the Bat Digital Heritage Inventory (BatDHI) was implemented by a combination of network-access-ready database application, open source geographical information systems, and a web-based map service to incorporate and visualize previous works, which were concurrently cross-checked and updated by ground-truth surveys. Findings – The online inventory made it possible to update information during archaeological fieldwork in real time and accelerated the decision-making process in heritage management by prompt data updates and visualization. Research limitations/implications – The DHI is extendable for other sites or regions. It should also be considered to install Arches, an open-source suite of digital heritage inventories. Practical implications – The BatDHI was implemented through the action research mentioned in the design/methodology/approach section and yielded the implications mentioned in the findings section. Originality/value – This paper is a challenging application of transdisciplinary approach to the sustainable heritage management, in which researchers and societal stakeholders collaborate for co-design of research agendas, co-production of knowledge, and co-dissemination of outcomes.

Long Term Preservation

In December 2004 the Danish parliament passed a new act on legal deposit which brought together all regulations concerning the collection and preservation of works published in Denmark, irrespective of type and format. The act covers works published in a physical format, works published on the Internet, radio and television broadcasts, and motion pictures. The responsibility for collecting and preserving this material (apart from motion pictures) is shared by the Royal Library and the State and University Library, and the article describes the procedures by which this responsibility will be discharged. Additional funding was secured to develop a system to meet the challenges of Internet harvesting and web archiving, and the new Danish Net Archive was ready to operate when the new law came into force on 1 July 2005. The article also considers the requirement for long-term preservation of digital material and the regulation of access to it, since both are seen as essential components in Denmark's initiatives to safeguard the nation's cultural heritage and to increase access to it.
