Heritage Monitorv0.2
Visualize the evolution of cultural heritage research across Europe through advanced scientometric analysis
Intelligence for Cultural Heritage
Heritage Monitor transforms vast datasets from European research initiatives into actionable intelligence. We let you identify experts, analyze funding patterns, collaboration networks, minority related research and (in development) research trends. This enables policy makers, researchers, and institutions to make data-driven decisions that shape the future of cultural heritage.

Transforming Heritage Research Through Data
The Challenge
Cultural heritage research spans thousands of institutions, hundreds of funding programs, and countless research outputs. This fragmentation makes it nearly impossible to identify trends, find collaborators, or ensure equitable representation of minority communities.
Traditional approaches rely on personal networks and incomplete information, leading to missed opportunities and reinforcing existing biases in research funding and collaboration.
Our Solution
HeritageMonitor aggregates data from CORDIS, OpenAIRE, ArXiv, and CORE to create a comprehensive view of the cultural heritage research landscape. Using advanced algorithms for topic modeling, network analysis, and predictive analytics, we transform raw data into strategic intelligence.
Our platform enables evidence-based decision making, revealing hidden patterns in collaboration networks, identifying emerging research areas before they become mainstream, and ensuring minority heritage receives appropriate attention and resources.

Key Challenges We Address
Defining Cultural Heritage
Cultural heritage is inherently interdisciplinary, spanning archaeology, digital humanities, conservation science, and countless other fields. Our hierarchical topic modeling approach captures this complexity while maintaining analytical precision.
Data Fragmentation
Research data is scattered across multiple databases, languages, and formats. Our unified data model and enrichment strategies bridge these gaps, creating a comprehensive view of the research landscape.
Minority Representation (coming soon)
Minority communities are often invisible in traditional research metrics. Our specialized tracking and keyword-based identification systems ensure their contributions and needs are properly recognized.
Predictive Capabilities (coming soon)
Understanding where research is heading is as important as knowing where its been. Our machine learning models identify emerging trends, helping stakeholders stay ahead of the curve.
