The document establishes a shared strategy for, on the one side, involving research communities, cultural heritage institutions, and technical experts, and, on the other side, supporting the development of skills and knowledge related to FAIR data management, Open Science, and the H2IOSC infrastructure services. The model combines communication, dissemination, and training actions into an integrated ecosystem that tries to align H2IOSC with national and European objectives for Open and FAIR research. The D1.3 deliverable supports H2IOSC’s vision of a connected and competent national community, capable of sustaining and expanding the adoption of FAIR and Open Science practices across the Humanities and Cultural Heritage domains. The plan identifies key target audiences, communication channels, and training formats, and proposes a roadmap of activities designed to strengthen participation, interoperability, and digital literacy. The document is structured into five main sections, each contributing to the definition and implementation of a coherent approach to participation, communication, and training across the four national Research Infrastructures. Section 1 introduces the H2IOSC project and the role of Activity A1.3, outlining the rationale, objectives and scope of the deliverable within the overall governance and management framework. It clarifies how training, engagement and outreach are coordinated at project level and how they interact with other work packages. Section 2 provides a synthesis of the landscape activities--describing the methodology and results of the assessment of existing resources, training needs and standards--and publication strategies across the four RIs. It also presents the establishment and functions of the H2IOSC Editorial Board, the development of the H2IOSC Handbook and website, and the tools and indicators used to monitor training and engagement activities over time. Section 3 focuses on engagement and dissemination. It defines the objectives of the H2IOSC engagement strategy, maps key stakeholder groups, and identifies the channels and instruments used to communicate with them. The section reports on engagement and dissemination initiatives carried out during the first 36 months of the project, including publications, public engagement activities, and the implementation of Transnational Access and Mobility Grants as mechanisms to strengthen collaboration and knowledge exchange. Section 4 sets out the H2IOSC training framework. It describes the reference initiatives at European level, the project’s training strategy and infrastructure, and the programme for training and upskilling H2IOSC users. It also details internal training and upskilling actions for project personnel, as well as the co-funding of PhD grants as a structural component of capacity building within the cluster. Section 5 presents the conclusions, highlighting how the combined engagement and training activities contribute to building a connected, competent 9 and sustainable community around H2IOSC, and how the proposed strategies align with the project’s long-term sustainability and Open Science objectives. The deliverable translates the project’s vision into concrete actions, ensuring that H2IOSC evolves as a connected and participatory cluster of infrastructures for Humanities and Cultural Heritage research. 16 teaching modules that assigns PIDs and Creative Commons licenses. User manuals and brochures are linked. The Home page foregrounds “What we do”—Landscaping & community building, Data Centers, a future Marketplace for services/tools/datasets, Community Pilots, and Training— and surfaces recent items from the News/Events feed. Primary audiences are researchers in SSH/heritage, with outreach to businesses and citizens. The site positions H2IOSC as a national reference for open, interoperable research ecosystems that connect institutions (universities, libraries, archives, museums) and provide advanced tools for data and compute-intensive research. The site is a structured project hub that combines institutional presentation (project and partners), ecosystem context (RIs cluster), actionable access mechanisms (TNA/NA calls), and capacity building (training platforms), framed by consistent funding and governance transparency. 2.3.3 Monitoring Training and Engagement activities An essential element for the successful progress of the project is the continuous monitoring of project activities. The same applies to the implementation of the training and engagement plan. This can be achieved through the identification of a set of KPIs (Key Performance Indicators): • number of training activities carried out. • number of modules produced and published. • number of outreach events • total number of users targeted with breakdown per activity. • total number of post-event questionnaires received. • number of accesses to online training materials • presence at Summer Schools and relevant events for our community • number of courses entered in the DHCR. • number of engagement activities carried out • total number of audiences targeted with breakdown per events. • number of accesses to online training materials • number of publications related to H2IOSC. • number of dissemination events/initiatives Some of these indicators have been used, and therefore valorised, in Deliverable D1.5 "H2IOSC Forum Report", which is a practical resource to understand and consolidate the project's acquired knowledge, offering valuable support to the Project decision-making structure in achieving project objectives. In order to monitor all initiatives and events along with their respective numbers and information, the tools developed and attached to this deliverable are used (annexes 1, 2 and 3). 17 3. H2IOSC - Engagement and dissemination 3.1 Objectives This planning process is about developing how to involve stakeholders and how to interact effectively with them during the project. The engagement strategy builds on the work of other Work Packages (WPs) to amplify the impact of H2IOSC and to involve the stakeholders at three levels: INFORMATION - For stakeholders to effectively engage, they must first have access to fundamental information about the H2IOSC project. As a result, the project is committed to providing stakeholders with regular updates on its activities, events, services, and decisionmaking processes. These updates are tailored to each stakeholder group, ensuring that they receive messages that are pertinent to their interests and involvement. This proactive approach prepares stakeholders to actively participate in the project, enabling them to contribute to its outcomes and help shape them according to the specific needs of their respective communities. CONSULTATION - Stakeholders are encouraged to contribute their comments, insights, and experiences related to the H2IOSC project's activities. This participation occurs both collectively, through group interactions like discussions and brainstorming sessions during workshops, Q&A sessions in webinars, and discussions following conference presentations, as well as individually, through surveys and other post-event follow-up activities. The feedback received from stakeholders after each event is collected and shared within the project team. This information plays a crucial role in shaping and informing the ongoing work of the project. One of the objectives of WP2 is to produce web-based questionnaires to assess scientific communities’ educational needs and web-based questionnaires to assess the visibility and the level of awareness of the 4 RIs services and tools within the Italian community. Such a nation-wide and cross-infrastructure survey has never been conducted at this scale, and this analysis provides more details about the arising needs of communities. Furthermore, reports on training activities (workshops, webinars, etc.) organized by WP8 are expected to be public and shared. INVOLVEMENT - H2IOSC provides stakeholders with multiple opportunities to actively influence and construct the H2IOSC Open Cloud and its services. These opportunities include consultation meetings, technical workshops, user group testing of the H2IOSC Marketplace, and the establishment of a board that ensures the day-to-day maintenance and the data quality of the Marketplace, among others. The intent is to prioritize diversity in terms of both disciplinary backgrounds and geographical locations. During these events, stakeholders are invited to participate in and contribute to specific project activities based on their expertise and their stakeholder group's characteristics. Our approach to awareness and training activities is not one-sided; instead, the project aims to actively engage communities in shaping the H2IOSC Open Cloud and ensuring their commitment to it. An important consideration is that our project partners already represent a substantial portion of the SSH community. They serve as both end users and amplifiers, utilizing their wellestablished networks, channels, and tools to ensure the adoption of the H2IOSC Open 18 Cloud. This adoption is expected to be further enhanced through a train-the-trainer approach within the activities outlined in the Building Expertise Strategy. 3.2 Significant engagement experiences and strategic documents The H2IOSC engagement plan is inspired and guided by some meaningful experiences and strategic reference documents within the European Research Infrastructure framework, as well as by FAIR and open science principles. Below, we highlight the most pertinent ones. Table 1: Significant engagement experiences and strategic documents Organization/Project Strategic document/Experiences EOSC - European Open Science Cloud Charter: EOSC Task Force on Researcher Engagement and Adoption ESFRI, the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures Strategic Report on Research Infrastructures – ROADMAP 2021 Social Sciences and Humanities Open Cloud (SSHOC) project Deliverable 6.1 Community Engagement Strategy CLARIN - Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure CLARIN ERIC Strategy 2024 - 2026 User Involvement Committee DARIAH-ERIC - Digital research infrastructure for arts and humanities Strategic plan 2019 - 2026 OPERAS - OPen scholarly communication in the European Research Area for Social Sciences and Humanities How-to-advocacy - OPERAS practical guide on advocating for open scholarly communication in the social sciences and humanities E-RIHS - European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science Implementation Phase D.8.3 Services for new communities of users 3.3 Stakeholders’ identification Activity A.1.3 manages the broader outreach activities of the project, by compiling and constantly updating a stakeholder’s directory, and ensuring the project's broader contacts with national and European infrastructures and cluster projects and initiatives. The identification of relevant stakeholder groups for the H2IOSC project, was performed by project partners during the project proposal stage. The project proposal identified primary stakeholder categories: - Universities 19 - National and European Infrastructures and cluster projects and initiatives (including governing bodies, as well as ESFRI, SSHOC EOSC and ICDI) - GLAM - Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums (Cultural Heritage Sector) - Archives and Research Libraries - Communities of reference - Public actors - Relevant sector projects Following, other stakeholders to be taken into consideration are listed: - Policy makers: Local, regional, national, EU policy makers and representative groups - Scientific and research community: Researchers, students, research support personnel, National and European Research Councils - Industry/Innovation community: Representatives of industry associations at regional, national and EU levels, social innovators and entrepreneurs - Civil society/ non-government organisations: Associations, foundations, cooperatives and networks - Formal and informal education community: Students, teachers, professors, science communicators, national and international science associations - General Public: Citizens and audience beyond the project community - Other EU projects: EU funded projects and initiatives such as the SSH framework. Figure 2: H2IOSC stakeholders To facilitate interaction with each of these groups, a Stakeholders Mapping Database has been established. This database identifies specific organizations within each stakeholder 20 group, as well as the existing connections, networks, channels, and tools between H2IOSC partners and each group. The database's construction was a collaborative endeavor among project partners. A mapping exercise was conducted, during which each project partner contributed their knowledge and contacts within existing networks. This Community Engagement Strategy is an extension of the initial Stakeholders Mapping Database. The Database is a dynamic, GDPR-compliant spreadsheet that must be periodically updated by the cluster. The information gathered from this initial landscape analysis included: identifying the primary stakeholders within each of the targeted stakeholder groups by the project, their geographical distribution, the academic discipline(s) to which they belong, the specific H2IOSC Work Packages (WPs) aimed at each category, and the existing networks, channels, and tools already established by project partners. This process must be reiterated, and the Stakeholders Mapping Database undergoes periodic updates to ensure efficient and tailored stakeholder engagement. 3.3.1 Targeted Research Infrastructures (RIs) H2IOSC, Humanities and Heritage Italian Open Science Cloud aims to create a federated digital research infrastructure in the ESFRI domain of Social and Cultural Innovation, starting from the collaboration between the four high-priority infrastructures identified in the National Research Infrastructure Plan 2021-27, CLARIN (Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure), DARIAH (Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities), E-RIHS (European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science) and OPERAS (Open Scholarly Communication in the European Research Area for Social Sciences and Humanities). Table 2: Targeted Research Infrastructures (RIs) R.I. Description CLARIN CLARIN is an ERIC-type distributed research infrastructure that aims to provide access to digital language data – written, spoken and multimodal – and to integrate them at European level with advanced search, access and analysis tools, serving scholars in the Humanities and Social Sciences to support innovation and competitiveness. DARIAH The Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities (DARIAH) ERIC aims to improve and support digitally-enabled research and teaching in the arts and humanities. DARIAH is a network of people, skills, information, knowledge, content, methods, tools and technologies from member countries. It develops, maintains and operates an infrastructure to support ICT-based research practices and researchers in their use to construct, analyse and interpret digital resources. E-RIHS E-RIHS is an ERIC-type distributed research infrastructure for heritage science that supports research on the interpretation, conservation, documentation 21 and management of cultural heritage. The mission of E-RIHS is to provide integrated access to a wide range of advanced scientific tools, state-of-the-art expertise, methodologies, data and technologies to foster knowledge and innovation in the field of Cultural Heritage OPERAS OPERAS is a research infrastructure supporting science communication in the humanities and social sciences in the European Research Area (ERA). It intends to co-ordinate and federate national and European resources to effectively address the needs of researchers in science communication. OPERAS aims to provide the humanities community with elements to access, create, disseminate and validate research results effectively, with an innovative approach that considers publication not as the end result of research, but as an integral part of the research cycle itself, from discovery of material to analysis, publication and dissemination. 3.3.2 Mapping of the stakeholder landscape This section provides the mapping of the stakeholder landscape. The map considers the analysis carried out during the period M01 – M36 of the project.

This category includes interested laypersons and the public at large who attended open events or read public-facing project news. Students-Focused Activities • Oriental Studies & Digital Humanities: a seminar event aimed at students (specifically, doctoral students of a PhD program in Asian and African Civilizations). This academic event introduced open science concepts to PhD candidates in that field; • Esperienze immersive tra archeologia e intelligenza artificiale. An outreach event designed for high school students. It featured immersive experiences in archaeology and AI, bringing open science and heritage topics to a younger audience (secondary school level); • Archaeology and Cultural Tourism Exhibition: a public exhibition where students interested in archaeology/cultural heritage were one of the target groups (alongside professionals like archaeologists and museum staff). This gave students exposure to heritage science innovations; • Career Day 2025 (University of Camerino, Ascoli Piceno): an event primarily for architecture and design students (undergraduate and graduate) to meet with industry companies in the field. Students interacted with Marche region architecture/design firms for career opportunities, illustrating engagement between academia and industry. Academics and Researchers • “Infrastrutture e risorse per la ricerca linguistica in Italia”: a conference bringing together the academic linguistics community and researchers, including members of linguistic associations and scholarly academies. The event was an opportunity for academics and researchers to discuss research infrastructure for linguistics, indicating a clear focus on this scholarly audience; • H2IOSC General Meeting “The project partnership meets stakeholders”. A two-day general meeting where the project Cluster engaged with external stakeholders. The target audience included representatives of research infrastructure-related associations, academia, and researchers, ensuring that university scholars and research staff were well-represented alongside organizational stakeholders; 33 • AIUCD 2023: La memoria digitale. A national conference on digital humanities (Associazione per l’Informatica Umanistica e la Cultura Digitale - AIUCD) where H2IOSC participated. The audience was largely academics and researchers in digital humanities. This conference inherently target university researchers, faculty, and scholarly attendees; • Various Academic Conferences and Workshops. Throughout the project, H2IOSC members contributed to or organized numerous conferences, workshops, and study days (e.g. CLiC-it 2023, EVOA 2024, Come to Code 2024 hackathon) aimed at the research community. These events’ participants included university professors, researchers, and often graduate students, reflecting an academic/research audience focus. Professionals and Domain Specialists • Digital Spritz Webinar: “Formazione FAIR per le scienze umane e del patrimonio”. It was an online webinar that targeted a mix of academics, researchers, general public, and students, but notably included professionals in its audience as well. It provided FAIR data training in humanities, attracting practitioners alongside scholars; • Come to Code 2024 (Tech Innovation Event). A tech-focused event targeting developers and hi-tech professionals. The audience was composed of developers and professionals in IT, ML, and cloud domains. This engagement aimed to involve the tech industry and practitioners in open science for cultural heritage; • Web3D/XR Workshop (PERCEIVE project). A workshop where the target was professionals in Web3D, XR and interactive 3D graphics. This indicates outreach to specialised IT professionals in the extended reality and 3D visualisation sector, showing H2IOSC’s engagement with cutting-edge tech communities; • Heritage Science DataSpace Presentation (GenOA Week 2023). This session was titled “Heritage Science e Open Science: il progetto DataSpace…” presented at a research data event. The audience included heritage science professionals and open science enthusiasts (e.g. data managers). It targeted practitioners who manage and use cultural heritage data, demonstrating the project’s relevance to professionals in GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums) sectors; • Borsa Mediterranea del Turismo Archeologico & tourismA 2023 – H2IOSC participated in these cultural heritage fairs with demonstrations. The audience comprised museum professionals, archaeologists, and interested students. This category of attendees are practitioners in archaeology and museum curation, so the activities were tailored to those professional communities in heritage and tourism; • Data Stewards Community Talks. H2IOSC WP8 delivered invited talks to the Italian Community of Data Stewards. These sessions targeted data stewardship professionals and individuals managing research data and open science processes in institutions. For example, a talk on FAIR educational materials design was attended by about 40 data stewards, focusing on professional training in data management. • Informal events for discussion, such as CLARIN Cafés. CLARIN Cafés are informal, online discussion sessions (typically 60–120 minutes on Zoom) where researchers, lecturers, students and experts exchange experiences on language resources, tools and infrastructure topics across SSH. Participation is free but requires registration. The programme is announced and maintained on the CLARIN Café page, which lists all past 34 and planned cafés with titles, dates and times. Recordings and slides are often linked from the individual event pages and the CLARIN YouTube playlist. The series launched in May 2020 (“CLARIN Café I: CLARIN in Times of Corona”) and has since covered themes such as ParlaMint, teaching with CLARIN, copyright and TDM exceptions, multilingual corpora, and project management in DH. See Annex 1 for details. General Public Outreach • Incontri a Palazzo (Archivio di Stato di Prato): this was a public event hosted at a state archive, targeting the general public. This was an open-door event introducing cultural heritage research and digital innovation to a broad, non-specialist audience in the local community; • Regional Events in Tuscany (NexUS and “100 ricercatori per la cultura”). These were initiatives co-organized with the Tuscany Region to connect culture and research. They explicitly included the general public in their target audiences, alongside academics and professionals. For instance, “NexUS: Cultura e Ricerca” and the “100 Researchers for Culture” seminar both invited citizens to engage with research-driven cultural heritage projects; • CNR Open Day 2023. A science open-house event at CNR, focusing on cultural heritage in the green and digital transitions. It was a public open day where the general public could interact with researchers. H2IOSC’s contributions here were meant to demystify the project’s work for laypeople, including interactive demonstrations; • Public News and Web Dissemination: in addition to physical events, the project posted website news updates and articles (e.g., the launch announcement of H2IOSC) intended for a wide audience. These dissemination activities, while not having a specified “target” in the sheet, were clearly meant for general readers and stakeholders interested in open science developments. Each engagement activity above is linked with one or more audience categories. By grouping the initiatives in this way, we see that H2IOSC’s outreach strategy was multifaceted, as it involved students, young researchers, the academic and research community, relevant professional sectors, and the general public. This ensured that the project’s impact extended from educating the next generation and informing specialists to raising awareness among the society at large. Collaborations: Beyond the cases already highlighted, several other collaborations and networking effects can be noted on the National level: • museums, archaeologists, and heritage professionals: engagement activities at exhibitions such as “TourismA” and the “Borsa Mediterranea del Turismo Archeologico” created durable connections with museum curators, archaeologists, and cultural heritage professionals. These events facilitated dialogue between research infrastructures and cultural heritage institutions, laying the groundwork for potential collaborations in digitisation and data sharing. • Tech and IT professionals: events such as Come to Code 2024 and workshops on Web3D/XR engaged the professional community of developers, XR specialists, and 35 cloud engineers. These interactions opened the door for collaborations at the intersection of heritage science and digital innovation, particularly in visualisation and immersive technologies; • regional institutions and the general public: Initiatives with the Tuscany Region (NexUS and “100 Ricercatori per la Cultura”) and public events at state archives created opportunities for collaboration with regional governments and for raising awareness among citizens. These forms of engagement represent important networking steps for embedding H2IOSC into the civic and cultural fabric of Italian society. The table related to H2IOSC engagement and dissemination initiatives that have been implemented in the 36 months of the project per RIs is available in Annex 1 for all details. 3.7 Publications related to H2IOSC This section includes all types of products — publications, papers, articles, reports, and related outputs — produced during the 36 months of the H2IOSC project. The H2IOSC project has demonstrated a high level of scientific productivity and dissemination across its research and innovation domains. A total of 174 publications were produced between 2023 and 2025 (according to Annex 2 – List of H2IOSC Publications), involving all the operating units within the cluster. This scientific production spans a variety of disciplinary areas, confirming the strong interdisciplinarity of the project, from heritage science and artificial intelligence to digital philology and data stewardship. In terms of category, Scientific publications dominate (160 publications), followed by Educational, Technical, and Outreach contributions. Notably, 58 publications involve PhD students, confirming H2IOSC’s commitment to earlycareer researcher training and professional development. The distribution by publication type reflects a rich and balanced mix: • Papers and journal articles: 40 publications (paper in rivista ISI, paper in rivista, Article) • Conference proceedings and presentations: 45 publications (Proceedings, conference presentation, conference proceedings) • Posters and abstracts: 21 publications (Poster, POSTER, book of abstracts) • Project deliverables and reports: 15 publications (Project deliverable, Report tecnicoscientifico, Manual, Guidelines) • Educational and training materials: 5 publications (Training material, Course) • Other outputs: 8 publications (books, chapters, tools, or handbooks) This diversity confirms the project’s integrated approach across academic research, technical innovation, and capacity building. The publication effort was shared among all participating Research Infrastructures, with particularly active contributions from: • CNR-ILC (CLARIN) – focusing on language resources and digital humanities 36 • CNR-INO (E-RIHS) – addressing heritage science and diagnostics • OVI-FI (DARIAH) – advancing digital philology and scholarly communication The H2IOSC publication list includes peer-reviewed papers, conference proceedings, posters, software and tools, courses, guidelines, and project deliverables produced by partners across the CLARIN-IT, DARIAH-IT, E-RIHS.it, and OPERAS-IT nodes. Topics range from service catalogues, semantic frameworks, and training infrastructures to IoT monitoring, novel X-ray and THz instruments, and domain-specific case studies in heritage science and digital humanities. Key thematic strands include: • Service catalogues and access orchestration: Design and rollout of the E-RIHS Catalogue of Services (E-RIHS Deliverables D5.3 and D5.4) and a technical report on API orchestration for the H2IOSC Marketplace, enabling “Level-2” composite services without centralised data handling. These results translate pilot experiences into a production-grade, FAIR-aligned service layer for users. • Semantic interoperability and registries: Publications define the project’s Common Semantic Framework (Deliverable D4.13), the HSeTIS resource hub for ontologies and semantic tools, and related initiatives such as DHeLO (Digital Heritage Landscaping Platform), BiDiAr (Bibliography of Digital Archaeology), and the Open Digital Epigraphy Hub (EpiHub). Together, these outputs operationalise FAIR principles and ensure cross-domain discoverability. • Training infrastructure and FAIR learning objects: The Training Strategy (Deliverable D8.1) defines a two-part infrastructure (portal and repository) with a shared methodology to publish learning materials as FAIR digital objects. This is complemented by courses such as Introduction to Language Data: Standards and Repositories (adapted from CLARIN UPSKILLS) and Linguistic Linked Open Data for Humanists, supporting consistency, reuse, and a train-the-trainers approach. • Governance, branding, and quality assurance: Outputs such as the Quality Assurance Plan and Guidelines (D1.1), Project Handbook, and Visual Identity Guidelines ensure unified processes, templates, attribution, and compliance across the federated infrastructure — a crucial foundation for sustainability and institutional coherence. • Data platforms and LOD/lexical services: Tools such as DigItAnt (for creating and linking LLOD lexica), ILC4CLARIN SKOSMOS (vocabulary services for semantic interoperability), and REST APIs for corpus management and annotation advance reusable, standards-based services integrated within H2IOSC pilots and national nodes. • Monitoring and edge infrastructure for Cultural Heritage: Publications explore IoT-based monitoring and wireless sensor networks (WSNs), including DIGILAB-integrated systems, NFC-powered crack loggers, and radar/remote-sensing 37 prototypes. These developments extend the notion of “access” to encompass environmental and structural telemetry for heritage assets. • Instrumentation embedded in RI access (MOLAB/FIXLAB): Work on mobile MA-XRF/MA-XRPD scanners, TXRF/GIXRF spectrometers, THz time-domain imaging, and digital radiography is framed within the E-RIHS access ecosystem, particularly through MOLAB campaigns. The focus extends beyond instrumentation to its integration into trans-national access workflows and data pipelines. 3.8 Public engagement The topic of public engagement (PE) is extremely complex and broad, so we have decided to dedicate an in-depth exploration that can be useful to the federation. Public engagement (PE) is a process that involves a wide range of citizens and groups. Among the multiple definitions of PE, one of the clearest and most effective is that of National Co-ordinating Centre for Public Engagement (NCCPE): “Public Engagement describes the myriad of ways in which the activity and benefits of higher education and research can be shared with the public. Engagement is by definition a two-way process, involving interaction and listening, with the goal of generating mutual benefit.” The objective of H2IOSC project is to capture a wide variety of public engagement activities. Any Cluster partners could take in consideration the steps listed below for development of a public engagement activity, and in any case comply with the medium-long term strategy outlined for the cluster in H2IOSC D1.4: • Identify well-defined objective(s) • Identify a clear target group. • Specify the type of engagement activity. • Identify resources. • Planning activity. • Realization. • Monitoring. • Follow-up. It’s very interesting the categorisation of Public Engagement that propose University College Dublin (UCD): 1 Co-producing - Participative action research, partnership, shared decision making. 2 Collaborating - Committee representation, stakeholder dialogue, public as researchers (citizen science). 3 Informing decision-making - People’s panels, focus group on research topic, advisory/user committee, citizen jury. 4 Understanding thinking - Opinion polls, consultations, attitude research, social research, surveys. 5 Stimulating thinking - Exhibitions, showcase, education programme, science centres, theatre education, public debate, interactive websites, Sciart (Science Art). 38 6 Informing/Inspiring - Lectures/talks, festivals, social media, podcasts, blog, newspaper coverage, library resources, magazine article, newsletters, tv programme, radio, webinars, website. 3.8.1 Suggestions for a public engagement event. In order to support the Cluster's partners in this subsection, we provide some useful guidelines for the construction of a public engagement event. Following some suggestions to choose and prepare a public engagement event. Type of public engagement event to offer. There are many different formats to choose from: • Citizen science: using public participants as data collectors and contributors for a research study. • Exhibit(s): the use of exhibits to allow the public to learn about/discuss public engagement with science topics. • Festival: a large-scale event using many methodologies to generate public engagement with science. • Forum/science café: expert lectures and some kind of discussion—ranging from Q&A to dialogue and deliberation—to generate public engagement with science. • Inquiry: engaging the public with science by participating in or learning about experimentation and inquiry practices. • Media (TV/radio/websites/movies): the use of a media component to generate public engagement with science. • Meet the scientist: giving scientists/researchers a chance to present their work or field of study directly to public participants through hands-on activities, classes, or stage presentations. • On-site research: providing public participants with the chance to become subjects of a research project at an informal science education institution as well as the opportunity to learn about the research. • Reference: providing reference material about public engagement with science through books and articles. • Take action: engaging the public with science by teaching them about a topic and trying to generate some kind of behavior change. • Art and theater: the use of visual or performing artworks to generate public engagement with science. Prepare for the public engagement event. Following five steps to prepare for a public engagement event: • Define the content that will be covered in the engagement event. Develop a shared background document to use among educators and scientists and a content map that lists the main goals and ideas that will be covered in the event. • Identify the vehicles that will be used to present the content and the strategies that will be used for engagement. This may include expert speakers, printed materials, 39 videos, theatrical presentations, hands-on materials, live facilitators, game-like materials, cell phone voting, and more. Plan to bring in either external facilitators or train the people who will be running the event to make sure they will not steer the conversation or process according to their biases. • Plan for evaluation from the start, including plans for front-end evaluation, formative evaluation, and summative evaluation. One goal of the evaluation should be to find the right balance between providing too much content (which can overwhelm participants) and too little content (which can leave visitors struggling to participate). Pre-engagement interviews with participants can help define how much content is needed for a robust dialogue. Similarly, plan to evaluate your content-presentation vehicles to see whether they’re effectively communicating your content and be prepared to try something different if they’re not working. • Test the materials and engagement strategies in advance through various methods, including front-end and formative evaluation, dry runs, and possibly Team-Based. Modify the materials and strategies based on what is learned during pretesting. • Determine the method for recruiting participants and audience members for the public engagement event. 3.8.2 Two examples of public engagement initiatives Public meetings Public meetings provide an opportunity to consult large numbers of people. Meetings can be organised to allow for small group discussions with oral feedback. There are often opportunities for participants to set or influence the agenda and to ask questions. From our experience small groups are an essential element of public meetings to engage people effectively: − Choose a venue or location which is convenient and accessible for your target audience. − Think about the most appropriate time of day for the meeting. − Think about the number of meetings you should have. − Always encourage the audience to break into smaller groups to enable better discussion and exchange. − Consider the use of external facilitation. Community surveys Community surveys can be undertaken to identify the needs and views of a large number of people in a standard format. The main stages involved are: − Defining the sample size and the type of information interview. − Survey design. − Piloting the survey. 40 − Undertaking the survey and post-completion analysis of the results. It is often best to use a short and concise survey where people’s views on an issue are being sought. There are a number of online survey tools to help you create, analyse and promote your survey (e.g., Lime survey) 3.8.3 The EUSEA and the European Science Engagement Platform A very useful tool for the preparation and implementation of engagement initiatives is the European Science Engagement Platform developed by European Science Engagement Association (EUSEA). The European Science Engagement Platform was created with the primary objective of supporting public engagement professionals by providing them with a central hub to access inspiration, resources, methods, and tools for conducting participatory, dialogue-oriented science communication activities. The platform provides examples of activities and tools: ● Range of possible activities: https://eusea.info/activity/ ● Resources: https://eusea.info/platform/resources/ 3.9 H2IOSC Transnational Access Within H2IOSC, the Trans‑National Access (TNA) and National Access (NA) process provides free‑of‑charge virtual access to advanced digital services and tools from the cluster’s RIs (CLARIN‑IT, DARIAH‑IT, E‑RIHS.it and OPERAS‑IT). Proposals follow an excellence‑driven access model: after a technical, logistical and ethical feasibility check by service providers, they are peer‑reviewed by the project’s External Advisory Board. Applicants use the dedicated page to read the TNA/NA Guidelines, consult the List of Services, review privacy and research‑data policies, and submit the online application form; a helpdesk supports candidates throughout. The dedicated webpage is https://www.h2iosc.cnr.it/tna-na-calls/. The description of the four calls and their results is an integral part of the final version of H2IOSC Deliverable D1.2. 3.10 H2IOSC Mobility Grants The H2IOSC Mobility Grant was conceived as a means to encourage knowledge exchange and the professional growth of researchers, students, and staff within the communities of the four infrastructures involved. The program provided short-term stays at national and international institutions, offering participants the chance to experience different working environments, interact with other research communities, and make use of services and tools developed by the project. The initiative had a strong impact on the professional development of young researchers and technical staff, who were able to strengthen their expertise in open science, FAIR data management, and digital research methods applied to the humanities and cultural heritage. 41 Importantly, the benefits extended beyond the individuals: those who took part brought back new skills and practices to their home institutions, creating a multiplier effect and fostering the adoption of good practices promoted by H2IOSC. Many of the mobility stays produced tangible outcomes, such as scientific articles, teaching materials, and tutorials, as well as new collaborations for conferences and workshops. Several projects focused specifically on methodological aspects of data management, testing the H2IOSC platforms like the Training Environment and the Training Library, while others addressed disciplinary case studies in computational linguistics, digital philology, or 3D documentation of cultural heritage. One of the most important achievements was the strengthening of networks. The grants supported the consolidation of ties with international infrastructures whose national nodes are involved in H2IOSC. These connections broadened the scope of the project, situating H2IOSC firmly within the European research ecosystem. Although there were some administrative challenges and limits on the number of grants available, demand for the program was high, showing the strong need for mobility opportunities that accompany career development and stimulate interdisciplinary innovation. In conclusion, the H2IOSC Mobility Grant proved to be a valuable component of the project. It enabled capacity building, produced concrete results, and, above all, created sustainable collaborations that will endure beyond the project itself. The grants confirmed mobility as a decisive lever for advancing open science and ensuring the long-term sustainability of research infrastructures. 48 The training events covered an estimated 500 hours of instruction, with sessions ranging from short webinars to multi-day schools. The distribution by type of activity shows a balanced mix across formats, with approximately 40 webinars, 30 workshops, 25 courses, and 35 training schools or seminars. In terms of delivery mode, the programme adopted a flexible hybrid approach to maximize accessibility and inclusiveness: • Online: ~60 events • In-person: ~40 events • Hybrid (online & in-person): ~30 events This combination ensured participation from geographically distributed audiences, including university students (BA, MA, PhD), researchers, educators, cultural heritage professionals, data stewards, and internal H2IOSC staff. The training activities were coordinated by multiple institutions, with the most active being: • CNR-ILC (CLARIN): leadership in linguistic and digital humanities training • CNR-INO (E-RIHS): specialization in heritage science and diagnostics • OVI-FI (DARIAH): expertise in digital philology and scholarly communication Thematically, the programme spanned a wide range of digital and methodological domains, including: • FAIR data principles and Open Science • Digital philology and corpus linguistics • Linked Open Data and semantic technologies • Artificial Intelligence and machine learning for cultural heritage • Text encoding (TEI/XML) and annotation • 3D visualization and WebXR applications • Data stewardship and Data Management Plans (DMPs) This extensive training effort was supported by the creation of the H2IOSC Training Environment and the Training Library, which host reusable and FAIR-compliant learning materials. These platforms sustain a train-the-trainer approach, ensuring the scalability and long-term sustainability of the project’s educational activities across institutions and disciplines. 4.3 Internal Training & Upskilling Part of the training activities was aimed at building an efficient and productive team. The importance recognised by the partners to training for improving the professional knowledge and skills of the group is what the project refers to as Internal Training.The dedicated budget for internal training has been used in particular for two purposes: − Common training needs 49 − Specific Research Infrastructure needs We consulted with the most experienced national and European training agencies and companies on the topic of IR, from management aspects to IT aspects, from ethical issues to legal issues. The schedule of internal training events has been finalized and circulated to the people working on the project. 4.3.1 Internal training: definition and objectives The implementation plan is outlined in the following tables for both internal personnel training and co-funding Ph.D. within H2IOSC.

Courses for skills development. Engagement and dissemination activities directed at H2IOSC personnel were a strategic first step in the WP1 mission, as they guaranteed internal alignment on shared methodologies, equipping H2IOSC personnel to serve as ambassadors and multipliers in subsequent external engagement. This enhanced the collaborative culture of the project, creating a shared foundation for all future training, engagement and dissemination outputs. Several dissemination measures were explicitly targeted to H2IOSC members themselves: • internal documentation and technical specifications: dissemination of guidelines, standards, and implementation documents ensured that all staff could align with project methodologies. For example, specifications for the H2IOSC Marketplace and the metadata schema were shared internally as dissemination outputs; • methodological dissemination: beyond training, FAIR-by-Design and metadata harmonisation guidelines were disseminated internally as working documents and presentations to facilitate adoption across different teams; • strategic dissemination to personnel: the broader strategy of integrating infrastructures (CLARIN, DARIAH, OPERAS, E-RIHS) was communicated internally, ensuring all staff were aware of how their local activities fitted into the national cluster and into EOSC. Other engagement initiatives directed to H2IOSC personnel involved creating awareness of links with external projects and infrastructures: 53 • personnel were engaged through internal briefings on collaborations with Skills4EOSC, SSHOC, and other European cluster initiatives; • dissemination of project synergies (for instance, with PRIN projects or national associations like AIUCD) helped personnel situate their own work in a wider ecosystem. These actions, while not training, engaged internal staff by showing them how H2IOSC is positioned nationally and internationally. The main outcomes of non-training engagement/dissemination for H2IOSC personnel were: • Internal alignment: dissemination of strategies, methodologies, and standards ensured a coherent approach across all operative units; • community building inside H2IOSC: engagement through meetings and cross-WP exchanges builts trust and cohesion among staff; • awareness of external positioning: by disseminating synergies with European and national projects, personnel gained a broader vision of H2IOSC’s role.

The idea was to propose a series of four online meetings aimed at introducing the work of each infrastructure. These events were strictly reserved for the units involved in the project, in order to delve into the specificities of each RI, not only at the national level but also including success stories for the international reference community. Specialized technical training One of the key aspects regarding the training of internal staff is the specialized technical training aimed at technicians and technologists referring to: - Installation and management of equipment related to the project's Data Centers. - Use of specific technical software. - Fairification tools. Here below is the detailed outline of specialized training courses that have been ordered and/or purchased by some Operational Units of the project, reported at M36, for their staff: - Configuration and management of a Kubernetes cluster (ICAR-CNR) - Configuration and management of hardware and software solutions (ICAR-CNR) - AI/LM/HPC in Data Centers (ISPC-CT) 56 - Supercomputing, machine/deep learning, data storage and ingestion aimed at support staff for Data Center operations (ISPC-LE) - interoperability among resources in the CH/HS sector (ISPC-MI) - Servification and remotization (ISPC-RM) - Supercomputing, machine/deep learning, data storage and ingestion aimed at support staff for Data Center operations (NANOTEC-LE) - VMware vSphere, VMware vCenter, VMware vSAN, VMware Tanzu / Kubernetes, Docker, Dell VxRail with vSAN, Dell Powerscale, Dell Datadomain, Dell Networking (ILC-CNR) 4.4 Co-funding of PhD grants in H2IOSC - 39° cycle H2IOSC is implementing a strategy to enhance the potential of new generations of researchers by improving their skills and expertise through doctoral scholarships with high scientific and technical competence.

Quando si utilizzano sonde a bassa energia, la presenza di mezzi opachi può ostacolare in modo significativo la penetrazione della radiazione incidente, nonché la raccolta del segnale retrodiffuso. Attualmente, nessuna tecnica è in grado di misurare in modo univoco e non invasivo lo spessore micrometrico di materiali eterogenei, come gli strati pittorici, per qualsiasi materiale pittorico. Lo scopo di questo lavoro era quello di esplorare la possibilità di estrarre informazioni stratigrafiche dagli spettri di riflettanza ottenuti mediante spettroscopia di riflettanza diffusa (DRS). https://www.fisi.polimi.it/it/all-news/cmd30-fismat2023 OU1 - OVI-FI DARIAH 13/09/2023 In person & online Torino Conference DRHA 2023 Engagement and dissemination Accademia, Ricercatori https://www.unito.it/sites/default/files/programma_drha.pdf OU1 - OVI-FI DARIAH 25/09/2023 26/09/2023 In person Paris - Auberville Event Accademia, Ricercatori 50 HUMA-NUM, RETOUR SUR 10 ANS DE CONSTRUCTION EUROPÉENNE Présentation du rôle des infrastructures européennes https://hn10years.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/1 OU8 - ILC-PI CLARIN 27/09/2023 In person Bologna Study day Engagement and dissemination 30 Study Day “Digital Humanities: from school to work. https://www.clarin-it.it/en/content/diptext-kc-study-day-digital-humanities OU1 - OVI-FI DARIAH 26/09/2023 27/09/2023 In person & online Vienna Conference Life Narrative and the Digital 2023: Interdisciplinary Engagement and dissemination Accademia, Ricercatori 60 Narrating through data: life and relationships of a XIV century's Tuscan merchant https://digital-bio-2023.acdh.oeaw.ac.at/data/html/program.html OU12 - ISPC-RM E-RIHS University of Padua, Sapienza University of Rome, Politecnico di Torino, Italy 10/10/2023 Online Conference REAACH - Representation Advances And CHallenges association Dissemination Accademia, ricercatori 70 The e-Archeo 3D project, an innovative and sustainable cultural proposal based on XR technologies The contribution focuses on e-Archeo 3D: an application that visualises virtual archaeological reconstructions. It is an interactive browser-based application implemented on the open-source ATON platform. This application enables the visualisation of archaeological sites through 360° panoramas that can be explored and populated with multimedia content (audio, pictures, videos, and 3D models). Users can switch between the current archaeological context and the reconstruction hypothesis at each viewpoint while a voice (or text) narrates the main archaeological and historical information. Some parts of the panoramas pulsate with a yellow colour and give access to in-depth multimedia content. An additional visualisation level allows users to learn about the reliability of the reconstructions and the sources and interpretative processes on which they are based. https://www.reaach.eu/symposium-2023/ OU8 - ILC-PI CLARIN 12/10/2023 In person Firenze Conference DiPText-KC @ “Open Doors at CNR” Engagement and dissemination Accademia, Ricercatori 60 Masterclass “Artificial Intelligence and Cultural Heritage: Computer Vision and Text Recognition” https://diptext-kc.clarin-it.it/diptext-kc-open-doors-at-cnr/ All UO All RI CNR-ISPC 12/10/2023 In person Firenze Festival PORTE APERTE AL CNR: #patrimonioculturale nelle transizioni verde e digitale Engagement and dissemination Accademia, Ricercatori, Pubblico generalista 300 Tre giornate interamente dedicate al Patrimonio Culturale e alle professionalità e attività che caratterizzano questo vivo settore di ricerca, con diversi format comunicativi indirizzati a diverse fasce di pubblico, per celebrare il Patrimonio Culturale nella cornice dei festeggiamenti dei cento anni dalla fondazione del Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche. https://www.ispc.cnr.it/it_it/2023/09/14/festival-porte-aperte-al-cnr-patrimonioculturalenelle-transizioni-verde-e-digitale/ OU1 - OVI-FI DARIAH DARIAH.IT 14/10/2023 In person Prato Event Engagement and dissemination Pubblico generalista 30 Incontri a Palazzo Archivio di Stato di Prato OU8 - ILC-PI CLARIN 18/10/2023 In person & online Leuven Conference CLARIN Annual Conference 2023 Engagement and dissemination Accademia, Ricercatori 150 CLARIN-IT: Texts, Documents and New Contexts https://www.clarin.eu/event/2023/clarin-annual-conference-2023 OU1 - OVI-FI DARIAH FEF, UNISTRASI, "Medioevo Romanzo" 23/10/2023 24/10/2023 In person & online Siena Workshop Filologia digitale e Medioevo romanzo.

Techniques that are able to reveal details not visible to the naked eye are beneficial for the study of the original project followed by the artist. Among these, THz time-domain spectrometers are worth considering thanks to their capability of performing high-resolution imaging with good penetration depth in most paint materials.

A Case Study for the Humanities And Cultural Heritage Italian Open Science Cloud With around 100000 sheets on an impressive variety of topics, Leibniz’s Nachlass constitutes a still partially unexplored witness of the multilayered relevance of manuscripts during the early modern period. The paper analyzes a thematic subset of this corpus, Leibniz’s texts on earth history and science, that will be the object of a digital edition in the context of the Humanities and Cultural Heritage Italian Open Science Clous (H2IOSC) project. While a relatively small subset (around 60 objects, carrying 47 texts, according to current estimation, plus a yet to be defined numbers of letter) it nonetheless provides an interesting variety of text-bearing objects: manuscripts, both autograph and not, printed texts, marginalia. The variety of object crosses the variety of textual typologies (fully developed essays, short notes, drafts. book extract, book reviews, letters) as well as nontextual objects (drawings, sketches, etc.) and, especially in the case of Leibniz’s main work on the issue, the Protogaea, provides the material for a genetic reconstruction of the text. I will analyze the set of relations that the corpus entails and the problem it raises in terms of its description via structured metadata. https://cesr-ests2025.sciencesconf.org/ OU8 - ILC-PI CLARIN CLARIN ERIC 14/05/2025 Online Seminar CLARIN Café Engagement Accademia, Ricercatori 30 How to Talk to Your Funder: A Funder's Perspective https://www.clarin.eu/content/clarin-cafe OU11 ISPC-MI E-RIHS UO ISPC-Mi 19/05/2025 Online Workshop Engagement and dissemination Accademia, ricercatori 15 Esperienze di epigrafia digitale a confronto - Presentazione dei corpora Presentation of the epigraphic corpora to be discussed in the May 2025 workshop https://www.h2iosc.cnr.it/experiences-in-digital-epigraphy-compared/ OU12 - ISPC-RM E-RIHS Scuola di Ateneo di Architettura e Design, Università di Camerino 21/05/2025 In person Scuola di Ateneo di Architettura e Design, Ascoli Piceno Conference Career Day 2025 Engagement and dissemination Studenti/studentesse di architettura e design di Ascoli, imprese marchigiane che operano nel settore dell'architettura e del design 80 L'intervento aveva il titolo: "Nuove tecnologie applicate ai beni culturali.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adp6234 Recent advancements of noninvasive imaging techniques applied for the study and conservation of paintings have driven a rapid development of cutting-edge computational methods. Macro x-ray fluorescence (MA-XRF), a well-established tool in this domain, generates complex and voluminous datasets that pose analytical challenges. To address this, we have incorporated machine learning strategies specifically designed for the analysis as they allow for identification of nontrivial dependencies and classification within these high-dimensional data, thereby promising comprehensive interrogation. We introduce a deep learning algorithm trained on a synthetic dataset that allows for fast and accurate analysis of the XRF spectra in MA-XRF datasets. This approach successfully overcomes the limitations commonly associated with traditional deconvolution methods.

The case study concerns the articles published in our international journal «Archeologia e Calcolatori» in the decade from 2011 to 2020 and, as a benchmark, the publications in the ‘Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology’ (CAA) conference proceedings and journal. The titles and abstracts of the publications featured in these two data sets were analysed using a supervised classification approach into the subfields of computer science, based on the ACM’s taxonomy, and by applying topic modelling techniques to discover emergent topics, Named Entity Recognition to identify specific archaeologically relevant entities, and geotagging techniques to link articles with the geographical locations they discuss. The results achieved, although preliminary, provide some methodological suggestions: i) the opportunity to build custom analyses by taking advantage of the increasing availability of open data and metadata; ii) the scope of the contribution of archaeology, and in particular of computational archaeology, to the Heritage Science interdisciplinary domain; the heuristic and predictive role of different ML techniques to gain a multi-faceted access to data analysis and interpretation.

Moving towards human–computer interaction, the study of emotions becomes fundamental because it is at the basis of the design of advanced systems to support a broad spectrum of application areas, including forensic, rehabilitative, educational, and many others. In particular, the proposed system extracts spatio-temporal image encodings, or atlases, from EEG data through the Processing and transfeR of Interaction States and Mappings through Imagebased eNcoding (PRISMIN) framework, thus obtaining a compact representation of the input signals.

Such data can be captured from interactive experiences in public exhibits, remote motion tracking equipment, immersive XR devices, lab installations or online web-applications. Immersive Analytics (IA) deals with benefits and challenges of using immersive environments for data analysis and related design solutions to improve the quality and efficiency of the analysis process. Today web technologies allow us to craft complex applications accessible through common browsers, and APIs like WebXR allow us to interact and explore virtual 3D environments using immersive devices. WebXR IA tools are still quite new in literature: they present several challenges, and leave quite unexplored the possibility of synchronous collaborative inspection. The opportunity to share the virtual space with remote analysts in fact, improves sense-making tasks and offers new ways to discuss interaction patterns together, while inspecting captured records or data aggregates. Furthermore, with proper collaborative approaches, analysts are able to share Machine Learning (ML) pipelines and constructively discuss the outcomes and insights through tailored data visualization, directly inside immersive 3D spaces, using a web browser. Under the H2IOSC project (pilot 7.7), we present the first results of an open-source pipeline involving tools and services for capturing, processing, and inspecting interactive sessions collaboratively in WebXR with other analysts. The modular pipeline can be easily deployed in research infrastructures (RIs), remote dedicated hubs or local scenarios. We deployed the pipeline to assess the different services and to better understand how people interact with generative AI environments. Obtained results can be easily adopted for a multitude of case studies, interactive applications, remote equipment or online applications, to support or accelerate the detection of interaction patterns among remote analysts, collaborating in the same 3D space.

Quochi DigItAnt: a platform for creating, linking and exploiting LOD lexica with heterogeneous resources UO 08 ILC paper Scientific Proceedings of the 9th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL-2024) Over the past few years, the deployment of Linked Open Data (LOD) technologies has witnessed significant advancements across a myriad of sectors, linguistics included. This progression is characterized by an exponential increase in the conversion of resources to adhere to contemporary encoding standards. Such transformations are driven by the objectives outlined in "ecological" methodologies, notably the FAIR data principles, which advocate for the reuse and interoperability of resources. This paper introduces the solutions devised within a nationwide collaborative research project aimed at integrating techniques and methodologies from the conventional study of epigraphic materials, computational lexicography, semantic web, and other digital humanities subfields. It details its services, utilities, and data types and shows how it manages to produce, exploit, and interlink LLOD and non-LLOD datasets in ways that are meaningful to its intended target disciplinary context, i.e. historical linguistics over epigraphic data. The paper also introduces how DigItAnt services and functionalities will contribute to the empowerment of a recently started Italian infrastructure cluster project devoted to the construction of a nationwide federation of research infrastructures for the humanities and cultural heritage, and in particular to its pilot project towards establishing an authoritative LLOD platform.

Through four key Ris — DARIAH-IT, CLARIN, OPERAS, and E-RIHS — the project enables collaboration among researchers with interdisciplinary expertise. Within this context, DIGILAB emerges as a digital access platform for the Italian node of ERIHS, providing data management, digital tools, and services to boost cultural heritage preservation, fruition, and study. A significant aspect of DIGILAB architecture is its capability to support geo-localization and real-time monitoring of cultural heritage sites in terms of environmental conditions, structural integrity, and diagnostics, leveraging on novel Internet of Things (IoT) systems and large-scale Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). By integrating WSNs into DIGILAB framework, the project enhances remote monitoring and control of cultural sites. These networks facilitate the collection of real-time data on factors such as temperature, humidity, and air quality, providing crucial insights for the Cultural Heritage research community. Moreover, WSNs enable proactive measures to be taken in response to emerging threats, mitigating risks and minimizing damage to cultural assets at a national level Publications with H2IOSC logo and/or acknowledgement SH8_10 Science and Technologies for Cultural Heritage PE6_6 Informatics and information systems PE7_5 Systems engineering, sensorics, actorics, automation PE10_15 Earth observations from space/remote sensing Mohamed Emara, Matteo Greco, Riccardo Colella, Andrea Pandurino, Francesco Taurino, Davide Zecca 39 Alberto Bucciero, Dora Francesca Barrbolla, Giovanni Leucci, Riccardo Colella, Giuseppe Cannazza, Lara De Giorgi, Chiara Torre NEW PROJECT FOR A SURFACE PENETRATING RADAR OU10 - ISPC-LE conference proceedings Scientific Accepted to SpliTech 2024 - 9th International Conference on Smart and Sustainable Technologies (SpliTech 2024) - cosponsored by IEEE ComSoc, IEEE CRFID For surface scanning applications of frescoes, plasters, and other works of art, it is necessary to use a high working frequency, to obtain good spatial resolution and adequate penetration. In this case, we chose to use a working frequency between 4 GHz and 6 GHz, which corresponds to a wavelength of approximately 1 cm in a medium in which the propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave is 0.07m/ns. At this frequency, objects with dimensions of the order of a millimeter and depths of up to a few tens of centimeters can be detected. The instrumentation aims to provide images of the object under examination from which it is possible to determine, without ambiguity, its morphological and electromagnetic properties (dielectric permittivity and conductivity). Furthermore, an application will be possible that allows remote detection of vital signs (for example breathing and heartbeat).

From Codex4D to DataSpace Project OU10 - ISPC-LE; OU12-ISPC-RM conference proceedings Scientific Extended Reality. XR Salento 2023. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 14219. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-43404-4_16 This contribution deals with the theme of ancient manuscripts and proposes an innovative approach to the construction of cultural ecosystems and virtual representations capable of integrating information levels of various kinds: not only textual and iconographic contents, as it usually happens, but also the form, structure, stratigraphy and elements hidden beneath the pictorial layers or beneath the texts visible on the surface, the constituent materials, the execution techniques, the state of conservation and the storytelling of the cultural context. This multidisciplinary approach results in a multidimensional virtual representation. Starting from the same data set, this cultural model is differently applied in a plurality of digital environments: 1) a 3D Web App, developed in the framework of the Codex4D project, conceived for the scientific visualisation of the manuscript, the analytical exploration of the virtual model and its information levels; 2) a holographic showcase, again developed in the context of the Codex4D project, conceived for the general public of museums and libraries, in which the research data are translated into a mixed-reality environment adopting a dramaturgical style; 3) an online digital platform, the DataSpace, mostly oriented to the scientific community, whose scope is to semantically organize, preserve in the long term, access, share and reuse information and data set produced by the Institute of Heritage Science, together with the documentation of processes and actions that led to their production. The contribution develops around these themes: conceptual maps, information architecture, user-experience design, and virtual environments to increase the knowledge of ancient manuscripts, in relation to various typologies of users.

A significant outcome of the efforts of the Rome branch of CNR-ISPC is the development of two key resources: the DHeLO web app and the BiDiAr bibliographic collection. DHeLO (Digital Heritage Landscaping Platform) is designed to collect, store, and query metadata of research projects, products, and digital tools in Cultural Heritage (CH) and Heritage Science (HS). It aims to create a comprehensive disciplinary observatory by integrating data from multiple sources into a structured system that allows for complex queries and data indexing. This platform supports the FAIR principles (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability) and includes metadata standards based on the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI). BiDiAr (Bibliography of Digital Archaeology) functions as a relational database within Zotero, an open-source bibliographic tool. It compiles bibliographic entries relevant to digital archaeology, integrating themes and research outputs from the 'Archeologia e Calcolatori' journal. This database aids in thematic trend analysis and network analysis by linking bibliographic citations, enhancing the understanding of research dynamics and impacts within the E-RIHS community. Analyzing these resources reveals an exponential increase in virtual reality and 3D modeling products, driven by epistemological developments and the disruptive use of photogrammetric modeling. These tools not only enhance data accessibility and usability but also support interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation in digital heritage and archaeology.

Its primary objective is to ensure seamless interoperability between resources from multiple institutions by establishing a shared semantic framework. The multidisciplinary nature of Heritage Science underscores the necessity for shared data repositories and effective management tools. Recent literature highlights the importance of semantic technologies in improving data integration and interoperability. To this end, the H-SeTIS database is currently under development. HSeTIS will function as a hub for the systematic surveying and description of various semantic tools relevant to the Heritage domain. Interestingly, a preliminary analysis of data within H-SeTIS reveals that many semantic resources specifically designed to address the unique requirements of the Heritage domain do not meet the minimum quality requirements of accessibility and reusability. This finding underscores a potential area for future development: the creation of H-SeTIS aims to support the ongoing development of a comprehensive ontology for Cultural Heritage, enhancing data FAIRness and the discipline’s overall impact.

Created within the Humanities and Cultural Heritage Italian Open Science Cloud (H2IOSC), EpiHub addresses the fragmented landscape of digital epigraphic resources, which span disciplines like linguistics, philology, and archaeology. Offering a comprehensive catalogue of national and international resources – such as datasets, digital tools, geographical and chronological gazetteers, dictionaries, and text-processing software – EpiHub structures these assets through descriptive metadata to facilitate discoverability and usability for researchers and practitioners across diverse cultural and temporal scopes. The platform’s flexible back-end architecture supports efficient data management and real-time updates to enhance front-end accessibility, organizing resources by thematic collections and allowing advanced searches based on specific epigraphic needs, such as language, geographic region, or historical period. Emphasizing FAIR principles, EpiHub standardizes metadata and controlled vocabularies to foster broader interoperability and data reuse across research projects. Integrated with related H2IOSC resources, including H-SeTIS and DHeLO, EpiHub aims to become a central resource, continuously enriched to support collaboration and innovation within the digital epigraphy community.

This contribution illustrates how the definition of a Domain-Specific Language can support the activities of epigraphists and historical linguists. It presents and discusses a method and technological solution, based on Domain-Specific Languages, for facilitating scholars in digitally representing the available knowledge of archaic languages and cultures. This is achieved by increasing the human readability of the encoded data without sacrificing compliance with standard models and formats. The work is framed within the context of an Italian National collaborative research project devoted to the study of the languages and cultures of ancient Italy. The platform developed within this project offers an interesting use case and motivation for experimenting with Domain-Specific Languages for the creation of necessary digital critical editions of the inscriptions relevant for these languages. After explaining the definition process of the DSL grammar, we finally test the applicability of the DSL grammar to five example inscriptions in the Faliscan language.

Phys. Photonics 6 035001. DOI 10.1088/2515-7647/ad41ab Daguerreotypes are historical photographic images made on mirror-like metallic plates. These are heritage objects whose shape cannot be measured with invasive techniques, like contact probes, but the high reflectivity of their surfaces makes the use of non-invasive, 3D-measuring optical techniques challenging. Moreover, the dark areas resulting from their degradation produce a very high contrast, which add extra difficulties to their measurement. In the last few years, several strategies have been developed to overcome the limitations of optical techniques when measuring reflective metallic surfaces. Many of these solutions are not applicable to the study of cultural heritage artifacts, as they are invasive. We attempted the use of conoscopic holography in a 3D-scanning system using a doubleexposure strategy. This is a promising option for 3D measuring of daguerreotypes, as we experimentally demonstrated in this work. We present the results obtained from the analyses of two 19th-century daguerreotypes with different superficial conditions. The double-exposure allowed us to obtain high-quality data from the entire object surface. This enabled the measurement of micro-scale details related to the manufacturing process and/or to the corrosion deposits. The proposed methodology can be exploited to monitor the overall health of highly reflective metallic objects but also the outcomes of some conservation treatments, such as cleaning.

Phys. Photonics 6 035018. DOI 10.1088/2515-7647/ad5772 Stratigraphic analyzes of polychrome surfaces, such as paintings, often need samples to offer consistent results regarding the sequence and composition of the layers. Non-invasive methodologies based on linear and nonlinear optical techniques limit material removal from the objects. Recently, optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become the preferred choice of heritage scientists because it is a safe and fast alternative for studying transparent or semi-transparent layers. Yet, nonlinear optical microscopy (NLOM)) technique in its modality of multiphoton excitation fluorescence (MPEF) has emerged as a promising tool for the same purpose. Here, we explored linear (OCT and confocal Raman microspectroscopy (CRM)) and nonlinear (NLOM-MPEF) optical methods' capability to investigate gelatine-based layers in mock-up samples and a painting dated 1939 by an artist from the Surrealistic entourage. The optical behavior of mock-up samples that imitate the painting stratigraphy and of six painting fragments detached from the support was also investigated with fiber optics reflectance spectroscopy and laser induced fluorescence (LIF). Thickness values from the mock-ups obtained with OCT, CRM, and MPEF have provided evidence of the complementarity, from a millimetric to a micrometric scale, and the limitations (e.g. strong fluorescence emission in CRM) of the methods. Moreover, the presence of gelatine was ascertained by LIF spectroscopy applied to the painting fragments and NLOM-MPEF confirmed its suitability as a non-invasive technique for investigating gelatine-based stratigraphic systems.

Advanced imaging techniques are currently being explored to study the impact of chemical changes on the structural and mechanical properties of wood. Nonlinear optical modalities, including second harmonic generation (SHG) and two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF), combined with fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), offer a promising non-destructive diagnostic method for evaluating lignocellulosebased materials. In this study, we employed a nonlinear multimodal approach to examine the effects of artificially induced delignification on samples of Norway spruce (Picea abies) and European beech (Fagus sylvatica) subjected to increasing treatment durations. The integration of SHG/TPEF imaging and multi-component fluorescence lifetime analysis enabled the detection of localized variations in nonlinear signals and τ-phase of key biopolymers within wood cell walls. This methodology provides a powerful tool for early detection of wood deterioration, facilitating proactive conservation efforts of wooden artefacts.

Moreover, the 3D reconstruction of objects of artistic interest is becoming mandatory, not only because of the risks to which works of art are increasingly exposed (e.g., wars and climatic disasters) but also because of the leading role that the virtual fruition of art is taking. In this work, we compared the performance of four 3D instruments based on different working principles and techniques (laser micro-profilometry, structured-light topography and the phase-shifting method) by measuring four samples of different sizes, dimensions and surface characteristics. We aimed to assess the capabilities and limitations of these instruments to verify their accuracy and the technical specifications given in the suppliers’ data sheets.

This paper investigates the stratigraphy and pigments distribution of a 16th-century painting from the Uffizi Galleries collection. Firstly, we obtained compositional information through the cross-sectional analysis of samples using scanning electron microscopy. Secondly, we performed elemental mapping using macro-X-ray fluorescence followed by reflectance imaging spectroscopy. The painting image cube was analysed using the spectral correlation mapping (SCM) classification algorithm to accurately identify the distribution and composition of the pigment mixtures.

The painting, which portraits a man with apparently Botticellian features, was probably created by one of the most skilled forgers of the early 20th century, Umberto Giunti. He used a flat tile as a support, covered with preparatory layers emulating a wall painting. To shed light on the authorship of the painting, it was crucial to investigate its composing materials, as well as the execution technique and the state of conservation. To this end, non-invasive spectroscopic and imaging optical techniques were applied. Specifically, VIS-NIR multispectral reflectography was used to reveal the presence of possible preparatory drawings, pentimenti and overpaintings.

Accordingly, in the framework of the SHINE project, both the MOLAB and FIXLAB platforms of the Italian Node of the European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science (E-RIHS.it) have been equipped with this cutting-edge equipment. This contribution pro-vides a brief overview of the available systems and presents preliminary results obtained on ad-hoc prepared specimens and achieved using specifically designed data processing approaches. Specifically, transmission imaging results on painted canvas samples with hidden drawings and time of flight reflection imaging results on wood samples covered by different material layers are presented. These latter results provide insight into the samples allowing the detection of the ma-terial layers up to the wooden support.

Anamorphosis stands as one of the highest examples of how art and science have fruitfully interacted over the centuries. It has a long tradition, beginning with Renaissance perspective experiments, reaching its peak in 17th-century treatises, and maintaining a widespread legacy in contemporary artistic language. Anamorphic devices work by disrupting the physiological visual process, altering perception and stimulating the viewer's cognitive processes aimed at recognising forms in an interactive and dynamic manner. This physical and mental engagement makes the experience emotionally and intellectually stimulating, as it requires the effort to reconfigure the image and unveil its true meaning, creating a personal connection with the artwork.

Within the project, several tools and services are being redesigned and/or refactored to improve accessibility for targeted communities. Among the solutions offered by E-RIHS infrastructure, the ATON framework - exposed as a service in the H2IOSC federation - was heavily refactored to accommodate the increasing demand of diverse scientific communities and their feedback for the last 10 years. With several H2IOSC pilots depending on ATON, as well as multiple national and international active projects, we discuss how the framework and its architecture evolved to quickly adapt and embrace a variety of scenarios, with a dynamic extensibility model. We report the beneficial impact H2IOSC trans-national and national (TNA/NA) calls had on driving such refactoring, based on concrete scenarios and international/national use cases.

With them, figurative miniatures share the depicted subjects that are recognizable, regardless of the medium used, for their specific iconography. Thanks to the use of a visual vocabulary still common today, illuminations are also the element that mostly attracts the non-academic public, making the often-incomprehensible content partly accessible despite the language. The paper will present IlluminAI, a project still in progress, which aims at the enhancement of late medieval and Renaissance illuminated codices using artificial intelligence through an immersive visualization system capable of automatically recognizing manuscript sheets, analyzing their content, and relating specimens with similar illustrations or artworks from the same theme.

The research explores the intermedial translation of a text excerpted from Il barone rampante (The baron in the Trees) by Italo Calvino, renowned for his visual and descrip-tive style. By extracting keywords from the text, 360-degree panoramic images were generated using generative AI. These images, combined with an audio narration of the passage, were incorporated into a VR experience accessible via an HMD headset.The study highlights how the immersive nature of VR enhances the relationship between image and narration, evolving from a literary description to a multisensory experience. The VR experience was tested on an exploratory sample, with participants’ visual behaviour tracked using advanced tools. The collected data enabled the analysis of gaze direction and the correlation between visual and auditory elements, while a questionnaire on the sense of ‘presence’ provided feedback on the im-mersive effectiveness of the experience.Despite the limitations of a small sample size, preliminary results demonstrate the potential of emer-ging technologies in intermedial translation.

Sci. 13, 411 (2025). https://doi.org/10.1038/s40494025-01983-6 Reworking paintings has been a common practice throughout art history, with artists modifying their own work at various stages and occasionally altering pieces by others. Advances in chemical imaging and increased access to traditional imaging techniques have facilitated the documentation of such interventions. Initially focused on Old Masters, research on reworking practices has expanded to nineteenthand twentieth-century artists. For the first time, a classification system for reworkings is introduced, based on the oeuvre of Belgian Modernist painter James Ensor (1860–1949). Five representative case studies each illustrate one of the proposed types of reworking: (1) pentimenti, (2) post-factum revisions, (3) recycled works, (4) metamorphoses, and (5) appropriations. Using advanced imaging and spectroscopic techniques, including Macro X-Ray Fluorescence (MA-XRF) and instrumentation from the Iperion HS consortium, the study also provides material-technical evidence of Ensor’s experimental studio practice while shedding new light on anachronisms in his oeuvre.

Macro-XRF employs focused beams measuring a few hundred microns (generated through polycapillary optics) to produce highresolution elemental images by scanning the entire painted surface and collecting the fluorescence signals emitted by the atomic species composing the pictorial materials. Conversely, XRR generates images based on the differential absorption of X-rays by materials with varying densities, uncovering hidden structures, compositions, and layers invisible to the naked eye. The integration of Macro-XRF and Digital X-ray radiography provides conservators, art historians and researchers with a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the original material composition, artist's modus operandi, structural details, creative processes and historical context. Recently, the Macro-XRF scanning system and the new XRR platform developed at the XRAYLab of CNR-ISPC (Catania) were employed to conduct a study focused on panel paintings by Renaissance masters. The results that we will present in this work have enhanced our understanding of both the material composition and painting techniques, while also contributing to the reconstruction of the history of these iconic works of art.

Recent technological advancement has offered new insight into the richness of ancient Macedonian artists' palette through the study of funerary art. This is the only remaining evidence, in the entirety of Greek antiquity, of the lost portable artworks once decorating the residences of Macedonian kings. The non-invasive analysis of the monumental tomb of Philip II at Vergina, Greece, fostered by previous pilot investigations into the materiality of other Macedonian funerary paintings, has revealed the use of unusual green pigments. These belong to a rare class of copper arsenates, which also occurs in the supergene non-sulfide copper ore bodies of the Lavrion deposits, whose exploitation is documented as early as 3000 BC, particularly for natural pigments. Combining non-invasive advanced X-ray based techniques serving the MOLAB and FIXLAB platforms of E-RIHS, all available at the XRAYLab of ISPC CNR, we aimed at characterizing the chemical and structural features of this class of pigments. Samples from geological outcrops in Greece and fragments from ancient Macedonian wall paintings were analysed by X-ray diffraction/fluorescence mapping to describe the occurrence of chemical markers and mineralogical phases. X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy (XAFS) was used to further understand chemical and structural variations among the samples. XAFS results were compared with reference spectra collected on commercial Cu arsenate greens and simulated X-ray absorption patterns of pure/mixed compounds typically identified in the geological and artistic samples. Findings not only enhance our understanding of the materials and techniques employed in ancient Macedonian art but also define a crucial framework for eventually tracing the provenance of the raw materials and highlighting recurrent practices and exploitation areas.

Among them, realgar (As₄S₄) and orpiment (As₂S₃) were widely used to produce red‑orange and yellow hues, respectively. Initially, they were mixed with a polysaccharide‑based binder (e.g., gum arabic), and later in egg tempera or linseed oil formulations. Arsenic‑bearing minerals are intrinsically unstable and undergo progressive degradation, eventually losing their characteristic yellow or orange appearance. To explore the feasibility of using non-invasive mobile X‑ray techniques to investigate, in situ, the physicochemical stability and degradation of these pigments, we prepared simplified paint layers containing pure pigment and medium, following historical recipes. We employed a set of advanced X-rays based techniques developed at the XRAYLab of ISPC-CNR in Catania, including mobile 2D micro-XRF, XRPD mapping, and 3D confocal XRF, to thoroughly characterize the morphological, structural, and chemical changes occurring in degradation processes. In addition, the investigation was supported by complementary lab-based SEM and micro-Raman analysis. Painted mock-ups were subjected to controlled environmental conditions, applying different artificial aging protocols that varied temperature (T), relative humidity (RH), light exposure, and pH. Beyond the welldocumented degradation products of arsenic-based pigments, this study revealed the formation of sulfur crystals on the surface of orpiment and realgar mock-ups aged under specific conditions. This phenomenon has been infrequently reported in the field [1]. Typically, the degradation of orpiment or realgar results in the conversion of sulfur into hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), sulfates, or organosulfur compounds [2]. Despite this, recent research has demonstrated that elemental sulfur release from crystalline orpiment is considerably influenced by alkaline pH, elevated dissolved oxygen concentrations, and increased temperature [3]. We have observed this phenomenon at the Museo Egizio Torino, during a MOLAB campaign for the noninvasive investigation of the Book of the Dead of Kha. In areas painted with orpiment we have detected a significant presence of sulfur aggregates which were not spatially correlated with arsenic. These findings provide new insights into the degradation pathways of arsenic sulfide pigments and highlight the necessity of further research to understand the implications of sulfur formation in archaeological and historical painted artworks.

Non-invasive analysis of Egyptian wooden funerary stelae by MA-XRF and MA-XRD: an interdisciplinary study on materials and technology UO9 ISPC-CT conference presentation Scientific Società Italiana di Fisica, 111° CONGRESSO NAZIONALE, Palermo, 22-26 settembre 2025 Non-invasive imaging techniques such as MA-XRF and MA-XRD are advanced tools for the in-situ analysis of polychrome surfaces, enabling chemical and mineralogical characterization without sampling. This work presents the results of a study conducted on seven Egyptian wooden funerary stelae dated to the 25th Dynasty (712-664 BC), currently preserved at the Hellenic National Archaeological Museum of Athens. The analyses were carried out using scanning systems developed by the XRAYLab of ISPC-CNR (Catania, Italy), in collaboration with the Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics, NCSR Demokritos (Athens, Greece). MAXRF imaging provided high-resolution elemental maps, revealing the use of arsenicand iron-based pigments, along with recurring calcium-sulfur associations in the ground layers. The integration with MA-XRD analysis allowed the identification of crystalline phases such as minium (Pb3O4) and hematite (Fe2O3), as well as traces of lead and tin in copperbased blue pigments, suggesting the recycling of leaded bronze scraps in the production of Egyptian blue. This integrated approach offers valuable insights into ancient manufacturing practices while fully preserving the integrity of the artifacts.

These unique large-scale compositions offer the opportunity to investigate the ancient painters’ techniques and to explore the themes of local funerary iconography. Within the MOLAB facilities provided by the IPERION HS consortium, and as part of the research projects REVIS (funded by the Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation) and H2IOSC (funded by the EU), the Xray Lab of the CNR-ISPC in Catania helped the characterization of the largest and most famous Classical painting, the Hunt frieze of the façade of the Tomb of Philip II at ancient Aigai (Vergina), NE Greece. Non-invasive mobile MA-XRF and XRD scanning were combined in-situ to infer on the spatial distribution of original inorganic materials. Results confirm the use of a rich gamut of pigments. Particularly, elemental and mineralogical data suggest the presence of unusual Cu, As-based minerals with greenish hues, possibly from local supplies. MA-XRF imaging also evidenced iconographic details, now scarcely visible due to the poor state of preservation of the pictorial layers.

The stelae in the Egyptian Antiquities Collection of the Hellenic National Archaeological Museum (HNAM) in Athens, Greece, are part of a donation from Alexandros Rostovits, a Greek expatriate and antiquities collector from Cairo who donated his collection to the museum in 1904. Likely from the 25th Dynasty (712-664 BC), these funerary objects preserved the deceased's name and ensured divine protection through symbolic imagery and hieroglyphic inscriptions. Advanced analytical techniques on artwork paint layers reveal production processes, evolution of colour palettes over time, and degradation patterns of these wooden artifacts. In this study, through non-invasive X-ray-based techniques available at the XRAYLab laboratory of ISPC-CNR in Catania and INPP-NCSR “Demokritos” in Athens, seven Egyptian stelae from the collection of the HNAM were analyzed. The investigation, including MA-XRD and MA-XRF mapping, enabled the identification of chemical elements and mineralogical phases in the pigments and preparation materials. Results revealed significant Ca content, in some cases associated with sulfur, indicating variations in support preparation[2]. In red pigments two distinct types of compounds were identified, Fe and As based, while in the yellows there is only arsenic. Only one stela presents a different type of red, with a mixture of minium and hematite, and ochre for the yellow pigments; of this minimum is mostly associated with the Ptolemaic and Roman periods[3]. Traces of Pb and Sn were identified in Cu-based pigments, indicating that some samples may have been produced using an alternative method, where leaded bronze scraps were reused as copper source for the synthesis of Egyptian blue[4]. The data obtained suggests that pigment use may define different production classes, correlated with stylistic variations in the decorative representations of the artifacts, in line with the production period. The results of this study, integrated with archaeological research, significantly enhance the understanding of materials, sources, and production techniques of Egyptian funerary stelae, placing them within more defined historical periods.

A multimodal spectrometer that integrates two of the most informative analytical techniques in Heritage Science - XRF and IR spectroscopy - into a single system is under development within the activity of the project CHANGES. From an analytical perspective, this spectrometer is unique in its ability to merge elemental XRF data with IR molecular spectroscopy. The IR component is based on a novel customized configuration implemented on a compact platform that features a global SiC source, a permanently aligned interferometer, and a TE-MCT detector. This setup enables acquisition across the broad IR spectrum, including the mid and SWIR ranges (5000-800 cm⁻¹), at a speed two to three times faster than the state of the art.[1-3] Meanwhile, the XRF device utilizes a compact, low-power X-ray source coupled with an SDD detector, achieving optimal geometric compactness and facilitating seamless integration with the IR module. From a technological standpoint, its main innovation consists in the use of high-performing mechatronics implemented on a collaborative anthropomorphic robotic arm extended with an ancillary linear stage. The system is designed for high versatility, allowing the analysis of complex three-dimensional objects (e.g., statues and sculptures) as well as large surfaces (e.g., paintings spanning up to 3 meters in one direction) within a single measurement session. The measurement process incorporates artificial intelligence, which performs real-time data processing. The immediate data makes it possible to manage large volumes of analytical information, automating the data processing and facilitating their interpretation. The system is still on a development step. Technical aspects and reference pilot studies on historical objects are illustrated and discussed.

The study employed a multi-analytical approach, integrating advanced portable and non-invasive imaging and single-point techniques, including scanning Macro X-ray Fluorescence (MAXRF), UV-IR imaging, VISNIR hyperspectral imaging, high-resolution digital microscopy, mapping X-ray Diffraction (MAXRD), Raman spectroscopy, micro-SORS, and VIS-NIR and IR external reflection spectroscopy. The synergy of these techniques provided an in-depth characterization of the papyrus’s pigments, binders, and overall conservation state. Imaging and scanning analytical methods allowed for a macroscale depiction of the pigment palette and artistic techniques, highlighting key areas for further investigation using single-point methods. High-resolution microscopy offered valuable insights into surface morphology, painting texture and application, as well as the physical condition of the papyrus. MAXRF revealed the elemental composition of various inorganic pigments, which were molecularly identified through vibrational and electronic spectroscopy, as well as MAXRD. Egyptian blue was found in both blue and black paints, while Egyptian green was used alongside a possible organic copperbased green. Different types of ochre paints, as well as arsenic-based yellow and red pigments, were detected. Huntite and carbon black were identified as white and black pigments, respectively. MicroSORS enabled depth-profiling of arsenic-based pigments, providing insights into their alteration mechanisms. Meanwhile, FTIR spectroscopy facilitated the analysis of organic materials, including binders, restoration materials, and degradation products.

Being highly sensitive to the local atomic structure, it provides unique insights into oxidation states, bond types, bond lengths, and coordination environments, even in amorphous or poorly crystalline phases [1]. In particular, the XANES (X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure) region is especially sensitive to local coordination and oxidation states in transition metal ions [2]. The EXAFS (Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure) region, extending beyond the absorption edge, reveals interatomic distances, coordination numbers, and structural disorder [2]. When used together in painting investigation, XANES and EXAFS provide a comprehensive view of both the electronic and geometric factors influencing the pigment stability or its degradation due to aging, environmental factors or pigment-binder interaction. Recent improvements in X-ray sources and detectors now enable XAS measurements in laboratory environments, reducing reliance on large-scale facilities. In this work we present a novel lab-based XAS system recently installed at XRAYLab of ISPC-CNR in Catania, accessible through the FIXLAB platform of E-RIHS. We demonstrate the feasibility of using this instrument to characterize ancient and modern pigments, both in the form of compressed pellets or thin paint fragments, typically obtained from the sampling often performed during the restoration procedures of real artworks. Specifically, we have developed a dedicated protocol for the instrument to analyze real samples, incorporating guidelines for sample preparation that include the minimum quantity of pigment required and the minimum detection time needed for obtaining reliable spectra. Preliminary results showcase the ability of lab-based XAS system to 1) reproduce XAS spectra obtained at synchrotron facilities for reference standards and specific pigment materials; 2) detect subtle spectral shifts and features indicative of phase transformations in pictorial pigments.

Dating back to the 11th and 12th centuries, these doors exemplify a blend of Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance styles, featuring decorative motifs, biblical scenes, and depictions of saints, as well as the distinctive use of a variety of different inlays. Macro X-ray Fluorescence (MA-XRF) analysis, carried out during the GAPAMET MOLAB E-RHIS campaign, was employed to evaluate the elemental distribution and identify key materials present across the doors. For the first time, this advanced MA-XRF technology was utilized to reveal the elemental composition of the materials used as inlay on these historic bronze doors, providing new insights into their manufacture. The analysis uncovered a broad range of elements, including copper (Cu), silver (Ag), gold (Au), mercury (Hg), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn), with notable compositional differences between the Main Door (MD) and the San Clemente Door (SC). These variations imply that the doors were likely created in separate workshops or at different times, possibly utilizing different alloys. The ability to identify and map the distribution of these elements with high precision allows for a deeper understanding of the materials and techniques used by the craftsmen of the time, shedding light on the historical processes behind these iconic doors.

Direct or indirect contact with fire causes a series of extreme, complex, and irreversible material and structural changes, including uneven thermal contraction of the support and denaturation of the parchment, resulting in the shrinkage of the textual parts. Moreover, such damage may add to previous degradation phenomena occurring in medieval manuscripts, such as oxidation and the migration of inorganic compounds in the writing inks across the support. Even after restoration, ancient fire-damaged manuscripts may show an unrecoverable loss of optical contrast between the writing and the support, particularly in highly carbonised pages, making it impossible to access their literary content. Optical methodologies, such as UV-fluorescence photography, either alone or in combination with contrast enhancement techniques, have been tested in the past [1] but can be insufficient for severely damaged items. Mobile μ-XRF scanning techniques offer a promising alternative, as they can generate 2-D elemental distribution maps of the materials used in ink in a completely non-invasive and contact-free manner. Considering the above, this paper presents the work towards the development of an analytical methodology for writing recovery in severely firedamaged parchment manuscripts using a mobile μ-XRF scanning system with real-time imaging capabilities developed by CNR-ISPC (Catania) and featuring an innovative hodoscopic detection system based on 4-SDDs, enabling high chemical sensitivity. The methodology has been applied to the French-Picard manuscript L.II.14 (dating back to 1311) of the Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria (BNU), Turin. A fire that broke out in 1904 affected the BNU and damaged Ms L.II.14, along with a large part of the entire manuscript collection, posing significant challenges for legibility and conservation [2]. The results of μ-XRF imaging of the manuscript conducted at various lateral resolutions to accommodate the morphological irregularities of individual folios and combined with advanced data post-processing techniques, enabled the recovery of textual portions that were previously completely inaccessible to the naked eye.

In this context, research data is typically stored in isolated repositories, often inaccessible to others in the field. Furthermore, the diagnostic studies applied to Cultural Heritage are characterized by a plethora of tools, protocols, settings, and data formats; at the same time, the scientific investigation process itself is not always adequately documented, often making its replication impossible. This fragmentation creates a significant challenge and generates a strong need throughout the scientific community for effective tools capable of analyzing, transforming, and correlating information from these disparate sources.

The main mosaic conservation problems, induced by external factors, are related to temperature and humidity variations, which may result in moisture, salt crystallization and accelerated material deterioration within the underlying layers. Though such deterioration in the subsurface is not immediately visible, it can strongly affect the preservation of the entire structure and the decoration layer in the short or long-term future. In this paper, we present and discuss laboratory experimental results of Digital Holographic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (DHSPI), applied to the subsurface diagnostic of a mosaic model after artificially induced thermal change and under simulated environmental conditions in climate chamber. The tests were performed on a custom-built wall mosaic model with known construction and known defects, which are simulating voids, detachments and deteriorated, restored or reshuffled areas. Two types of induced stress were used: 1) low thermal excitation emitted by IR lamps directly to the surface; 2) simulated environmental conditions inside the climate chamber. In regards of the in-situ diagnostic investigation any structural alteration occurs as a natural reaction to the surrounding environment and monitoring of surface reactions and defect detection under natural fluctuations it could be considered as a very important aspect of implementation to optimize range of applicability for non-destructive remote portable instrumentation. The obtained DHSPI results on the detection of known defects in the mosaic under artificially induced thermal alteration and under simulated environmental conditions are compared and discussed.

As digital and interactive tools become increasingly integrated into heritage studies, the training in the field is undergoing a significant transformation. The H2IOSC (Heritage and Humanities Italian Open Science Cloud) project has developed an innovative digital training infrastructure aimed at providing access to FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) courses and training materials. In this abstract we focus on the H2IOSC training platform, aimed to address the evolving training needs of our disciplinary communities. Created by H2IOSC WP8 (Work Package 8: Training, Engagement and Capacity Building) in collaboration with the E.T.T. S.p.A., it is maintained and hosted by CNR-ILC (Institute of Computational Linguistics “A. Zampolli”), host institution of CLARIN-IT, with the participation of the national nodes of DARIAH, E-RIHS, and OPERAS. The platform provides a flexible, customizable learning environment designed to support interdisciplinary education and continuous professional development in the Social Sciences, Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage sectors. The platform features a comprehensive course catalogue containing training courses and modules developed or adapted by the four infrastructures within the H2IOSC project as FAIR training materials, designed for various target knowledge levels, from beginners to advanced learners in heritage and humanities fields. An intuitive dashboard allows users to access materials, track progress and use collaborative tools, including forums, chats, and virtual working groups for networking and communication.

Insights into the stratigraphy of gelatin-based emulsion in historical dry plate photographic negatives: A multianalytical approach UO15 INO-FI paper in rivista ISI Scientific https://doi.org/10.1016/j.microc.2025.113379 This research investigates historical gelatin dry plate negatives’ chemical composition and stratigraphic structure through a comprehensive multi-analytical approach. Our methodology integrated optical and laser-based techniques, with microscopies, including Optical and Scanning Electron Microscopy – Backscattered Electrons (SEMBSE) and Non-linear Optical Microscopy (NLOM) in its Multi-photon Excitation Fluorescence (MPEF) modality to analyze stratigraphy. MPEF enabled us to overcome the limitations associated with light absorption encountered in other optical techniques. Chemical analysis using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), Scanning Electron Microscopy – Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and micro-Raman spectroscopy allowed for the classification of negative types based on specific compositional materials, such as synthetic dyes. Our findings contribute to the knowledge of dry plate negative composition and stratigraphy, the aspects that have seldom been investigated. The information retrieved is crucial for understanding the realization and degradation mechanisms of these valuable artifacts, often prone to delamination and flaking, and can inform conservators to better treat historical dry plate photographic negatives.

Setting up a methodology for restoring degraded daguerreotypes using UV lasers and atmospheric non-thermal plasma cleaning techniques UO15 INO-FI paper in rivista ISI Scientific https://doi.org/10.1016/j.culher.2025.06.021 Cleaning daguerreotypes is challenging, and conventional methods often result in undesirable effects or prove impractical, especially for hand-colored plates. In recent decades, advanced techniques, such as laser and plasma cleaning, have been optimized for tarnish removal. However, their effectiveness in removing other substances, such as by-products of previous cleaning treatments, has not been evaluated. To address this issue, we investigated the efficacy of laser and atmospheric nonthermal plasma cleaning on two 19thcentury daguerreotypes exhibiting two different degradation conditions: one with typical tarnish, and the other with a complex layer composed of cyanides, calcium carbonate, and an organic compound, likely produced during a previous cleaning attempt. This work reports systematic tests using visible (VIS) and ultraviolet (UV) lasers emitting at four different wavelengths: Nd:YAG (532 nm, 355 nm), KrF excimer (248 nm), and ArF excimer (193 nm). All the lasers operated in the nanosecond regime, except for the KrF excimer laser, which was also tested with femtosecond (500 fs) pulse duration. This is the first report of results using the 248 nm wavelength in both ns and fs regimes for daguerreotype restoration. For comparison, we also applied atmospheric non-thermal plasma cleaning to both types of degradation. The experiments allowed us to assess the advantages and limitations of both techniques, showing that both are suitable depending on the specific surface condition. Additionally, we evaluated a combined cleaning strategy that involved laser and wet cleaning with two different substances –distilled water and an EDTA solution to optimize the cleaning outcomes. To make an informed selection of the parameters and evaluate treatment efficacy, we characterized the chemical composition and morphology of the daguerreotypes and their degradation products before and after cleaning using optical microscopy, μ-Raman spectroscopy, and SEM-EDS.

This paper presents the 3D survey of an earthquake-damaged panel painting, whose wooden support suffered severe deformation during a seismic event, posing unique restoration challenges. Our work focuses on quantifying how shape variations in the support—induced during restoration—affect the surface morphology of the pictorial layers. To this end, we conducted measurements before and after support consolidation using two complementary 3D techniques: structured-light projection to generate 3D models of the painting, tracking global shape changes in the panel, and laser-scanning microprofilometry to produce high-resolution models of localized areas, capturing surface morphology, superficial cracks, and pictorial detachments. By processing and crosscomparing 3D point cloud data from both techniques, we quantified shape variations and evaluated their impact on the pictorial layers. This approach demonstrates the utility of multi-scale 3D documentation in guiding complex restoration interventions.

They are increasingly being used in the Cultural Heritage field because of their ability to overcome some limits of the well-established optical techniques. However, since nonlinear optical microscopies use pulsed laser sources with high peak power, their application in Cultural Heritage raises concerns due to artworks’ unique, priceless, and delicate nature. In this paper, we present a new method for evaluating the photo-induced damage when using a near-infrared femtosecond pulsed laser to perform two-photon excited fluorescence imaging of acrylic-painted mock-ups. In particular, we explore herein several irradiation conditions, varying the exposure time and excitation power, in order to provide useful experimental indications for safely imaging acrylic paints with twophoton microscopy.

[10.3390/min15030252] The early detection of bronze disease is a significant challenge not only in conservation science but also in various industrial fields that utilize copper alloys (i.e., shipbuilding and construction). Due to the aggressive nature of this corrosion pathway, developing methods for its early detection is pivotal. The presence of copper trihydroxychlorides is the main key indicator of the ongoing autocatalytic process. Commonly used for pigment identification, reflectance imaging spectroscopy (RIS) or fiber optics reflectance spectroscopy (FORS) was recently employed for mapping atacamite distribution in extended bronze corrosion patinas. In this work, we detected the onset of bronze disease using visible–near-infrared (VIS-NIR) multispectral reflectography, which allowed for disclosing features that were poorly detectable to the naked eye. The image cube was analyzed using the spectral correlation mapper (SCM) algorithm to map the distribution of copper trihydroxychlorides. FORS and Raman spectroscopy were employed to characterize the patina composition and validate RIS data. A set of bronze samples, representative of Florentine Renaissance workshops, was specifically realized for the present study and artificially aged at different corrosion stages.

Part of these extremophilic microorganisms contains carotenoids, reason for which their colonization becomes visible by naked eye on large surfaces. This work investigates the pink alteration of the walls with drawings attributed to Michelangelo, located in the basement room of the Medici Chapel (Florence, Italy). The results of in-depth multidisciplinary investigations are discussed in the context of a thorough literature review on pink alterations of heritage buildings. For the first time, we combined culture-based approaches with metagenomic analyses that revealed the pink pigmented archaea Halalkalicoccus sp. as dominant, pointing their role in the pink discoloration present on the wall. Raman spectroscopy was exploited for the characterization of the biogenic pigments and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy to analyze the salt formations present on the walls.

We present an ontology-based approach for integrating CLARIN language resources into the H2IOSC semantic framework, promoting interoperability across the Social Sciences and Humanities. Building on CMDI and the CLARIN Concept Registry, our work extends CMD2RDF beyond syntactic conversion to formal semantic integration. CMDI metadata is mapped to CIDOC CRM and SSHOCro, with extensions for CLARINspecific needs.

This contribution presents the work conducted within the second work package of the Humanities and Heritage Italian Science Cloud (H2IOSC) infrastructural project, dedicated to "Landscaping and Building Communities", with the aim of defining a methodology for mapping the current status and availability of resources and technologies and enhancing their utilization in the Humanities and Cultural Heritage sectors. The mapping activity involved a comprehensive investigation encompassing language technologies, digital humanities, and heritage science disciplines in Italy. The aim of the landscaping activity is to collect information on the latest and most prevalent resources, tools, communities, best practices, standards, and projects developed within the Heritage, Social Sciences, and Digital Humanities communities. In this project, the four partnering infrastructures - CLARIN, DARIAH, E-RIHS, and OPERAS - collaborate closely to develop the best strategies for engaging and meeting the needs of their target research communities as well as to identify the set of priority items (resources, tools, and services) to FAIRify and onboard them into the national MarketPlace.

In this course we will present a comprehensive introduction to the creation, publication, and use of linked open data for anyone who wants to work with linguistic datasets – such as lexicons and corpora – and especially for those who come from a linguistic or humanist background. We will look at the basics of linked data and the Semantic Web and introduce the various different standards technologies that make up the Semantic Web stack before focusing on the particular case of linked data language resources. During the course we will study the most important tools, vocabularies, and resources available in the Semantic Web and provide hands-on training for the creation and querying of linguistic linked data. We will look at how Semantic Web technologies can contribute to the creation of FAIR language resources as well as how to publish your resource on the linked open data cloud. We will also show how the Semantic Web query language SPARQL can be a powerful tool for data exploration.

For cultural heritage, this approach opens possibilities for new, non-destructive, yet highly specific means for understanding the chemical composition, structure, and shape of an object, building, or landscape. In this lecture, the speaker will present a brief background on the aims and goals of computationally imaging cultural objects, followed by an overview of his research group's contributions to the field, which started at Northwestern University and is now at the University of Hong Kong. A particular emphasis will be placed on taking the lessons learned from imaging the macroscopic world (things larger than a hand specimen) into the microscopic realm, which is more difficult due to the nonlinear interactions between light and matter at this scale. The last part of the lecture will examine the use of artificial intelligence and, specifically, foundational models (like those employed in OpenAI's ChatGPT) to solve problems in identifying and retrieving microscopic images of pigments, fibers, corrosion products, and other materials relevant to culture.

It is based on the principle of elastic waves propagation in a material when a sudden release of energy inside the material itself occurs. This release of energy may happen due to a wide range of events taking place inside a solid material, such as the formation of a crack, corrosion phenomena, friction between two surfaces... The energy waves generated by the event travel inside the material and can be captured by piezoelectric sensors placed on the surface of the object. Acoustic emission allows then the detection and monitoring of a series of phenomena. In the field of cultural heritage, it is mainly applied to monitoring of cracks inside different types of objects (wooden objects, metal objects, enamels, built heritage, sculptures, paintings ….) due to environmental conditions changes and to integrated pest management, allowing to detect the activities of insects inside wood. In the field of automotive industry, acoustic emission is used to monitor the performances of newly produced engines. In the ACUME_HV project (Acoustic Emission Monitoring of Historical Vehicles) we have applied Acoustic Emission to historical vehicles’ engines in order to perform a diagnosis of the state of conservation of the mechanical parts of the engines, due to wear, friction or corrosion, before their reactivation. During the talk you will learn about the Acoustic Emission techniques and their application to the diagnostic and monitoring of historical engines.

Using thermal energy in an inert atmosphere, the macromolecules are broken apart into smaller, volatile fragments that are separated, ionised and measured. Although the technique is indispensable for the characterisation of polymers, it is also excellent for the analysis of nonpolymerised compounds, and mixtures of both. Sample preparation is minimal for Py-GC-MS, and recent advances have made it possible to analyse smaller samples than ever before.
