Use Case Summary
These are state-based digital registries, repositories, and listings of local communities’ heritage places such as historical sites, significant historical events, and cultural documentation to preserve local culture knowledge. Such portals/platforms also allow for the nomination, assessment, registration, and consultations on discovered heritage spaces, historical events, or practices to be evaluated and authenticated, possibly recognized, and protected by preservation acts.
