The Digital
World has become the most significant platform for spreading the written and
visual documents about cultural and historical heritages in accordance with the
recent developments on web based technologies. All kind of digital platforms
such as notebooks, personal computers, tablets and mobile phones are the
primary tools to transfer local values to global scale. Nevertheless, it is not
possible to say that these technological opportunities are not used efficiently
to promote museums keeping the inheritance and memory of societies.
Fortunately, 3D game technologies and virtual reality applications have been
started to use in this area. The traditional promotion methods are being
replaced by these new and innovative solutions including ‘virtual museum’ term.
People are capable to use this platform to see and interactively walk through
the virtually reconstructed museums in a 3D digital environment. Creating
accessible web based virtual museum platforms will attract tourists, students
and researchers from all ages. The aim of this study is to create a virtual
museum platform including all kind of written and visual materials. Hagia
Sophia has been selected as the case study area of this study and digitally
reconstructed to use in the project.
