3D Digital Dossiers -- a new way of presenting cultural heritage on the Web
Anton Eliëns, Yiwen Wang, Chris van Riel, Tatja Scholte

abstract
In this paper we give a comprehensive overview of our work on digital dossiers for the presentation
of cultural heritage, in particular contemporary art, on the web using
standard 3D technology.
Digital dossiers allow for navigation using concept-graphs,
and use 3D in an essential manner to present artwork installations,
as 3D models,
as well as all the relevant information needed for understanding
the artwork, and, for curators, for the preservation and possible
re-installation of the artwork(s).
Our discussion encompasses requirements, implementation issues,
and the realization of guided tours in digital dossiers,
that provide a narrative facility as well as tools to
experiment with exhibition parameters in virtual space.
