Selection of an appropriate 3D digitization method in the field of cultural heritage represents a big challenge, especially for non-expert users, such as conservators, art historians, archaeologists etc. Considering the above, the aim of this paper is to develop an expert system for the selection of 3D digitization method, which is the tool for suggesting for the most acceptable 3D digitization method for any individual cultural heritage object. The development of the expert system was presented through the analysis of its components, i.e. main modules – user interface, database and knowledge base. This expert system was based on different parameters defined through theoretical-methodological analysis of representative tangible cultural heritage objects. The database contains technical specifications of various 3D digitization methods, devices, and additional equipment available on market, while the knowledge base defines their limitations. The expert selection system requires as input information details about the cultural heritage object and the end user requirements. During the evaluation phase through the case studies, the system proposed satisfactory solutions depending on the entered input data. © 2019, Strojarski Facultet. All rights reserved.
