Museums of India: National Portal and Digital Repository
The National Portal and Digital Repository for Indian Museums are
developed and hosted by Human-Centred Design & Computing Group,
C-DAC, Pune as per the agreement with Ministry of Culture, Government of
India. HCDC Group has also developed JATAN: Virtual Museum software
which is used for creating the digital collections in various museums
and digital archival tools that are used in background for managing the
national digital repository of museums.
Presently as a part of the digitization efforts of the Ministry of
Culture, Government of India the digitized collections of 10 selected
Museums, as given below, are placed in the digital repository for Indian
Museums and also on the National Portal developed by C-DAC, Pune in
consultation with the Ministry of Culture along with technical help from
the Art Institute of Chicago
in the first phase. Subsequently, it will be our endeavour to make
available the digitized collections of the remaining museums under the
Ministry of Culture/Archaeological Survey of India also on the National
Portal.
