Heritage artifact tracking system
An RFID and e-signature based inventory and tracking system for cultural assets.
A system that digitised the inventory of cultural assets in the palace collections and tracks their movements. Artifacts are identified with RFID tags; counts, relocations and restoration work are recorded. Critical operations are approved with e-signatures, so every record shows who did what and when.
Key decisions
- RFID identification: recognising an artifact by scanning its tag makes counts and relocation records both faster and more accurate than writing them by hand.
- E-signature approval: critical operations are approved with an e-signature, so who did what, and when, is recorded in a way that cannot be denied.
- A history of every move: besides an artifact's current location, the system keeps where it moved from, where to and why; processes such as restoration become part of its history.
