SNECS – Social Network of Historic Centre Entities

Description

The SNECS – Social Network of Historic Centre Entities research project, developed within the DATABENC High Technology District for Cultural Heritage and funded by the Campania Regional Operational Programme, aims to collect and disseminate scientific knowledge concerning the artistic, archaeological, literary, historical and philosophical heritage of the Campania region, with particular emphasis on its historic centres.

The project seeks to develop and experiment with new strategies for representing, organising, disseminating and promoting this knowledge, based on technological intelligence paradigms and addressing the challenges associated with Smart Cities and Smart Environments.

The technological infrastructure, consisting of networks, cloud computing, open data and distributed sensor systems, provides the enabling foundation for intelligent ecosystems capable of supporting transparency, economic growth and the coordination of economic development models and participatory territorial governance.
