| Abstract: | This paper presents an innovative approach to cultural heritage preservation through the development of an open framework that leverages RESTful APIs to make high-fidelity 3D models of cultural artifacts accessible to any application. Focusing on antique kitchenware utensils from the Nakhon Si Thammarat National Museum in Thailand, this research utilizes photogrammetry to create detailed 3D models, which are then made available on a web-based platform, accessible globally via standardized HTTP requests. The framework enables real-time access to 3D cultural content, overcoming the geographical and physical barriers that often limit access to cultural heritage. By integrating these 3D models into RESTful APIs, the project not only preserves delicate artifacts but also enhances their educational and cultural value through interactive accessibility. This system demonstrates the practical application of digital preservation technologies and sets a precedent for future initiatives aiming to digitize and disseminate cultural artifacts more broadly. The implications of this study extend beyond preservation to include enhanced global accessibility, enriched educational resources, and a more inclusive approach to cultural engagement. This project illustrates the transformative potential of digital technologies in preserving, accessing, and experiencing cultural heritage worldwide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
