Konsten Därute, Förvalta och Bevara : Kritisk rapport om ett GIS-projekt

This Master thesis is about building-related public art as future cultural heritage and its management, preservation, and digital accessibility from a value perspective. Furthermore, the aim is to develop proposals for a management model and public tools that could benefit the accessibility of public art and thus also its preservation. A management model that provides an overview of management objects of public art and that can be shared with the public to create understanding, participation, and interaction. The thesis includes a critical report on the planning of a GIS project. GIS is a geographic information system, it provides tools for creating, editing, and analyzing data.The purpose of the critical report is to highlight that GIS can be used in an easily way but also requires a critically reflexive approach. The approach in the GIS project is critical, interdisciplinary and the mapping is based on cultural presence as a method. The result shows that geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a useful tool and can be easily use with the free ArcGIS software. There is some of the areas that GIS users need to handle as risk analysis, legislation, interdisciplinary and intercultural perspective. It is important that the material created with GIS is shared with the public to create understanding, participation, and interaction. Thus, it is relevant to contextualize the content from a historical perspective and in relation to the present and the target group. Therefore, is important to keep in mind that norms and values change over time and that making the material available can mean reaching a global audience, an intercultural approach could be beneficial.
