INDICATE (International Network for a Digital Cultural Heritage e-Infrastructure) is an European Union FP7 project which aims to establish a network of common interest made up of experts and researchers in the field of e-infrastructures and digital cultural heritage at Euro Mediterranean level.
Through the network, the participants can share experience, promote standards and guidelines, seek harmonisation of best practice and policy.
