About this Item

Title

  • Documenting maritime heritage at risk : digital tools, communities, and institutions

Summary

  • "Documenting Maritime Heritage at Risk addresses the need to document coastal heritage and considers attendant questions regarding long-term conservation, and the role communities could have in addressing this issue. Presenting community-based case studies and guidance on survey methodologies, the book offers insights into the documentation and analysis of coastal heritage, and the potential of digital tools. Communities living along the coast, who are deeply attached to their heritage, are facing these threats very directly - and often with a sense of having little agency in the discussions or decisions being taken. Yet, as the book demonstrates, they could have a central role to play as first-hand observers of the impact of climate change on their heritage. The collection offers an overview of the invaluable role different participants, working collectively, could have in the documentation and management of endangered maritime heritage. Documenting Maritime Heritage at Risk provides a vital resource for researchers and students engaged in the study of maritime heritage. It will also be of great interest to practitioners, such as local heritage or conservation officers and marine engineers who bear the primary responsibility for maintaining coastal heritage sites"-- Provided by publisher.
