Abstract

<p>This report introduces attempt to sustainable historical resources. Currently, the long-term preservation of historical resources is a major issue in Japan. In addition to the routine disposal of resources, frequent calamities in the Japanese society result in population losses, along with the loss of livelihoods, culture, and records. To deal with these conditions, the project seeks to avert the corresponding loss by creating a data infrastructure, specifically through digitization. It attempts to prevent actual loss of records by adding information like latitude and longitude to the metadata and contents of historical and cultural records, ascertaining their location, and making use of them in various fields. Compiling this data goes beyond simply collecting it—it is necessary to both create high-level data based on historical research and document research, and make it internationally available for practical use. This report sheds light on example cases.</p><p></p>
