Abstract

In recent decades, researchers of archaeological 3D digitalization found that the collection and archive of processing intermediate data are extremely tiresome tasks. They need large of man power and material resources, even though, mistakes can be raised and break the whole working chain. The traditional documentation of digitalization process is also a pending challenge, although, the ISO standard CIDOC-CRM (ISO 21127:2006) has been introduced to the archaeologists and museum professionals since years, but there are still some obvious gaps between practice and theory: (1) How to connect the discrete archaeologists, museums, CH research institutions, and the public? (2) How to ensure the integrity of whole digitalization process and simplify the process? (3) How to maximize the usability of the public digital objects in CH community? (4) How to long term preserve the huge amount of datasets? (5) How to present and disseminate the digital object to the public? This paper presents an operational and optimal infrastructure that realizes not only a distributed storage system, but also a content management system. This infrastructure works as a backbone of whole digitalization process, provides a complete solution suite for archaeologists, museum professionals, museum visitors, and IT technicians.
