Abstract

The article presents a technique to create images containing information about cultural values in digital form for the formation, maintenance and use of Ukrainian Іnsurance Fund of Documentation (IFD) based on the creation and registration of their information contents (complex digital images) by the results of scientific attribution. The methodology was tested on materials (documents, photographs, negatives on film and glass) of the History Museum of V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. The informational content of the material results of human creation is the result of a person's allocation of a personal context from knowledge about them, which should be understood as an organized, integrated collection of facts and generalizations. The result of the process of context selection from knowledge depends on a large number of factors, among which are the purpose, content and amount of knowledge, perceptions and skills of the person performing the process, public perceptions of value and importance, etc. The solution of the problem of storing the information content of cultural values lies in the complex solution of the following tasks: person`s separation of the context from the knowledge of the material results of human creation, that is, the creation of completely specific information; presentation of this information in the form of data; determination of the presentation of data and bearer corresponding to that type. The testing results the proposed methodology confirmed the validity of the hypothesis about the possibility to create complex digital images of cultural values on the basis of scientific attribution in order to obtain more complete quantitative and qualitative data on the objects of material and spiritual culture while creating cultural heritage Insurance Fund.
