Division of Cultural Resource Information
Masahide Mori, Division Leader

This division makes the systematic collection, management, publication, and social contribution of information about cultural resources, and conducts research and development for that. Cultural resources studies deal with a wide variety of information, whose forms vary from tangible cultural heritage such as paintings, carvings, buildings, and archeological relics, to intangible cultural heritage such as performing art, festivals, rituals, and customs, including languages, music, and skills underlying those cultural heritage. This division handles not only things like actual works or excavated articles, but also their image information, literal information such as documents and historical materials, video information of festivals or rituals, and sound information like music or dialects. It collects and organizes those things and information in a suitable way for each form, and manages and releases them efficiently. Through developing methods to do that and publishing specific results, it will give back to society, or promote international contribution. This division, by systemizing and managing information that two other sectors in the Center, that is, Tangible Cultural Resource and Intangible Cultural Resource, deal with, will support each research, try to integrate both sectors, and proceed to more comprehensive cultural resources studies. For this goal, supported by Information Media Center and Database Study Group of Kanazawa University, it will make effective use of the latest achievements of information processing studies.
