Title
Digital Mapping of Intangible Cultural Heritage: The Case of Traditional Foods
Abstrat
The purpose of this paper is to disseminate knowledge about using digital mapping technologies such as Geographic Information System (GIS), Google Maps and Google Earth as a method to preserve, conserve and safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage. In this context traditional food is used as a case study. Digital mapping offers a possibility to analyze heritage information in the spatial and temporal context and to engage immensely in a digital world. GIS is a technology that can provide spatially and temporally dynamic maps where one can better understand how a place truly changes from period to period and provide a framework for showing and analyzing context in terms of what was happening around a particular time and place. Digital cultural map is one of widely used means of distributing information about different cultural areas.
