In tandem with the continual development of digital heritage documentation that stems from directional/official policies of the government of the Republic of Korea, the heritage community both locally and nationally has focused greater attention on the potential applications of digital technologies. In light of this, on the occasion of the 6th ICOMOS CIPA Summer School to be held in Gyeongju, Republic of Korea, from 14 to 19 July 2019, in close collaboration with Digital Heritage Lab (KAIST), the above-mentioned seminar has been organized as a post program. This post-program could serve as an excellent opportunity for participants to (re)discover key concepts and roles of digital documentation technologies in the preservation of both tangible and intangible heritage. It could also provide participants a better understanding of current international practices in the field of digital heritage documentation as well as contribute to establishing a professional network dedicated to information exchange and training among heritage professionals.
