Digital Crete: Mediterranean Cultural Itineraries

The team of the Lab of IMS continues to enrich the content of the web site that hosts the database and the corresponding digital maps of the project. More than 5,500 sites of archaeological interest have been registered to the database, whereas at the same time more sites are registered through GPS surveys and presented to the corresponding cartographic layers, all of which are accessible through the web (http://digitalcrete.ims.forth.gr). A VRML application allowing a VR tour of the 3D model of Crete is included in the upgrade modules of the system, which seems to get the proper attention from the users who explore the site.
