Building of Digital Archives of Kyrgyz Museums: Preserving the Cultural Resources of Kyrgyzstan

Hanhee Hahm, Semina Oh, Minhee Choi, Soon Cheol Park

Abstract—The cultural resources of Kyrgyzstan are extensive and diverse, comprising a vast collection of historical, artistic, and scientific artifacts. Unfortunately, many of these priceless treasures are housed in museums that are facing a shortage of resources and support, making them susceptible to damage and loss. To tackle this challenge, the Building Digital Archives of Kyrgyz Museums project was established to create a centralized digital repository of the nation's cultural resources. This paper discusses the processes and technologies employed in developing the digital archives, which include effective data management and the creation of a user-friendly interface. The project has had a significant impact on preserving and sharing Kyrgyz cultural resources both locally and globally. By ensuring that these valuable assets are accessible to the public, the project has contributed to the promotion and appreciation of Kyrgyzstan's rich history and culture.
