CARARE kommer att:
”…add substantial value to Europeana and its users by:
- Promoting and enabling participation in Europeana by heritage agencies and organisations, archaeological museums and research institutions and specialist digital archives, and raises awareness of Europeana in the domain
- Establishing an aggregation service which contributes on a practical level to enabling interoperability, promoting best practices and standards to heritage organisations, taking account of the particular needs of content for archaeology and architecture
- Implementing Europeana-compatible infrastructures, standards and tools in order to make millions of digital items available for heritage places across Europe, thus contributing to the growth of Europeana
- Contributing expertise on geographic information
- Acting as a test bed for Europeana’s APIs, which are intended to make contents available for other service providers to use, for example in the areas of tourism, education and humanities research
- Establishing the methodology for 3D and virtual reality content to be made accessible to Europeana’s users” (från http://version1.europeana.eu/web/guest/details-carare/)
Projektet pågår fram till januari 2013 och i projektet deltar 29 institutioner från 20 olika europeiska länder. CARARE koordineras av Kulturarvsstyrelsen (Danmark) tillsammans med MDR Partners. Projektet kommer att ha en egen webbplats på www.carare.eu
