Redocumentariser la Tapisserie de Bayeux : base de données documentaire et système d’informations spatialisées

Abstract

Alongside the renewal of the Bayeux Tapestry Museum planned for 2024, led by the city of Bayeux, the DRAC Normandy, the Normandy region and the Calvados department, several numeric tools have been created to discover and examine the Tapestry in new ways.Those tools consist in a Spatialised Document Information System (SDIS), combining a Document database and a Spatialised information system. They offer solutions to manage and to enhance documentary resources related to the Bayeux Tapestry and should, at the end, accompany all the persons interested in the Tapestry, particularly scholars in Humanities, curators-restorers, specialists in textile and the public. This project is the result of a close collaboration between the State, the city of Bayeux, the University of Caen Normandy, the CNRS and the Ensicaen.
