In the new edition of EKT’s National Aggregator of Digital Cultural Content, SearchCulture.gr, Greek cultural heritage is put on the map.

Mining the geographical information that accompanies the documents, EKT has indexed 12,000 geolocations associated with Greek culture, and more than 550,000 records were enriched with geolocation data. Location is now a searchable field on the SearchCulture , with the results being displayed on interactive maps, where users can find items at village, town or monument level. At the same time, places also act as a filter for results. From the Places navigation page the user can see the two hierarchical vocabularies created by EKT, while in each item record, a smaller map shows the geographical location of the cultural resource.
