IT Platform for the Formation of Digital Duplicates for Museum Exhibits

An actual problem in the field of digitalization of historical and cultural heritage is the insufficient efficiency of user interaction with network information resources and knowledge systems. The problem of Big Data complicates interaction with distributed network information resources. This article proposes the creation of new models, methods and means of forming, processing and displaying digital images of historical and cultural heritage preservation objects in a narrative format, which are able to provide the user with the opportunity to use them in the form of consolidated interactive knowledge systems. The transdisciplinary format of narrative discourse is considered as an operational platform for forming a cognitive-communication scenario of interaction with virtual museum exhibits consolidated with network information resources. An ontological model of transdisciplinary consolidation of 3D panoramas with network information resources and knowledge systems of meaningful display of historical and cultural heritage based on transdisciplinary properties of narrative discourse has been built. The main idea of the approach is the transdisciplinary consolidation of network information resources and knowledge systems in the environment of virtual museum expositions. The approach described in this article was tested on the “Museum Portal” IT platform to support user interaction in the process of researching historical and cultural events, facts and phenomena in the format of a single scientific and educational environment “Museum Planet”. The approach makes it possible to achieve the improvement of user interaction with virtual museum exhibits consolidated with thematically defined network information resources.
