Success Story

Preserving Cultural Heritage Through Digitalization

Preserving Cultural Heritage Through Digitalization

Customer challenge

The Ministry of Culture and Media is the central body of the state administration, responsible for the improvement and development of culture. Digitalization and online availability of cultural heritage content of The Member States of the European Union contribute to economic growth and job creation. The Digital Agenda is one of the seven key initiatives of the Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable, and inclusive growth. In order to create the conditions for sustainable management of the process of digitization of cultural heritage, the Ministry envisaged the implementation of the eKultura project – digitization of cultural heritage at the national level. As a part of the digitalization agenda, there was need to implement CAD and BIM methodologies and workflows through close cooperation with Communiter Ad Decus d.o.o. (CAD d.o.o.) as an Autodesk Solution Provider Partner for the implementation and support required for success.

Project goals

The following priority project goals were identified: 1) Accelerate the process of digitizing cultural heritage, including digital preservation, facilitating access to content and online availability of services related to digital cultural heritage in line with the EU strategic framework. 2) Source new software and broaden software already in use to enhance digitalization and provide support for future cloud integration. 3) Enable experts in the field of cultural heritage protection to master the methodologies of using advanced technologies and methodologies in documenting and preserving the existing state of research, protection and archiving facilities. 4) Identify areas within the current production management workflow where cost-saving practices could be implemented without loss of operational efficiency.

Solution

After initial mobilization meeting and consultations with the client, CAD d.o.o. delivered a plan for enabling employees as experts in the field of cultural heritage protection to master the methodologies of using advanced technologies and methodologies in documenting and preserving the existing state of research, protection and archiving facilities by implementing specific software solutions from the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) Collection. The Project is set to focus on CAD solutions in a first phase and development towards BIM in a second phase with educational training and a “best practice” workflows implementation.

Business outcome

As a result of the Project, digitalization of both archival material in paper and immovable cultural heritage property in underway. AutoCAD Including Specialized Toolsets, especially Raster Design, is used for digitizing old geographic maps, cadastres and all other 2D materials that had to be scaled or/and georeferenced. Despite COVID-19 protocols and actual “pandemic times”, IT experts from CAD d.o.o. and the Ministry of Culture and Media managed to organize, arrange, and deliver online specialized education for the employees handling immobile heritage materials (real estates, etc.). Arrangements for the next implementation project and furtherment of implementations has been concluded.

Conclusion

With a complete and flexible approach to customer support solutions, CAD d.o.o. has successfully implemented software solutions as tools for advancement of workflows from the recording of geo-situation, objects and artifacts through manipulation and editing of recorded data, the use of 3D models for the purpose of documenting, restoring, preserving and structural analysis for the purpose of renovation of buildings, and finally various possibilities of visual presentations for scientific research, planning and design, educational and even tourist purposes.

3 Times Faster: As a Reaction to Demand for Laboratories During COVID

Klimaoprema, established in 1975 in Croatia, is an experienced and certified manufacturer of high-quality HVAC equipment and cleanroom technology as well as an engineering company providing turn-key projects in industries where the cleanroom is required (hospitals, laboratories, food technology, microelectronics, and more.) Turn-key solutions include project management with every project step from planning, design, procurement, production, execution (installation and construction) to final steps such as validation and maintenance. At the beginning of 2020, Klimaoprema had received an almost impossible task; to design and build a cleanroom facility in a very short time. The project would consist of over 3000 m2 of cleanroom space with complete HVAC system and equipment. Such complex projects usually take around 30 months to be completed. Klimaoprema was required to cut down the production and delivery time to 8 months only.

Implementation of FEA, Improvement of Work Processes and Collaboration

Navtec Marine d.o.o. is a private group of technical specialists, established in 1993, offering design and consulting services to ship and yacht owners and builders, working worldwide. Navtec Marine covers demands regarding various types of ships, yachts, and special structures like ships (tankers, containers, MPVs, etc.), yachts (including high speed craft) special structures/machines and offshore and special equipment design. The making of 3D models and technical documentation for the client is a very complex process because in the phase of development, testing and checking the ship's structure are extremely important and changes and revisions are very common. Optimization of the modeling process, testing of 3D models, preparation of technical documentation and cooperation with clients during the entire design phase are necessary for each project.
