EUreka3D is a project funded by the Digital Europe Programme of the European Union, to support the digital transformation of the cultural heritage sector, by offering capacity building and training, and new services, to Cultural Heritage Institutions facing the challenge of advancing in the digitization effort, especially in 3D digitization, access, storage, sharing.
EUreka3D concluded on 31/12/2024 and is followed by the continuation project EUreka3D-XR, officially presented in a hybrid event in Pisa and Online on 27th February 2025 (registration open).
The project offered a capacity building and knowledge programme, next to services and resources developed in a piloting action based on smart technical infrastructures and tools, also registered on the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). This virtual space, the EUreka3D Data Hub, allows cultural heritage institutions to use storage and computing resources to manage their 3D assets, which will give smaller institutions an affordable and simpler way to digitise, model, manage and share 3D records.
Additionally, the project aggregated and publishd a variety of high-quality 2D and 3D digital records in Europeana.eu website as well as offered clear examples for the use and reuse of the cultural content in neighbouring areas such as tourism and education. Finally, EUreka3D developed training material for 3D digitisation, data processing and publication on Europeana.eu as well as organised training activities to support cultural heritage institutions with the use of the EUreka3D Data Hub. The project performed an impact assessment to enable the sustainability of the project’s outcomes.
