The CrossCult Platform is a flexible software environment offering IT services for the Cultural Heritage sector to trigger reflections hidden behind cultural artefacts, historical facts or venues and to personalize the visit experience by using apps or other digital tools. These services are integrated in a microservice architecture, including a dedicated Knowledge Base (CCKB). They are distributed together with a web portal offering front-ends for different user roles.The Platform is accompanied by a set of 4 apps ecosystems demonstrating its capabilities in different contexts, which can be adapted for exploitation in similar contexts:
- The CC Solution for large and multi-thematic venues,
- The CC Solution for connecting different small and medium venues,
- The CC Solution for connecting physical and digital cultural items,
- The CC Solution for outdoor venues based on location contents.
