Aimed at cultural heritage professionals, EUreka3D-XR inaugurates a new webinar series, as the project gets closer to its conclusion in July: The Lifestyle of 3D Data in Cultural Heritage webinar serie, that brought together the key results of both EUreka3D and EUreka3D-XR projects to present them in a clear, practical, encompassing and accessible way.

This series offered a complete overview of how 3D data can be created, managed and reused sustainably, connecting technical, policy and practical perspectives, drawing on real tools, workflows and infrastructures developed within the projects, and aligning them with Europeana policies and the common European data space for cultural heritage.

The series was split in two focused sessions, where participants explored the full journey of 3D data in cultural guided by professionals of the sector with first hand experience in the field.

The recordings of the two sessions are now available on EUreka3D-XR’s YouTube channel.
