Abstract

ABSTRACT As a mainstay of local and national cultural heritage management, historic environment records play an effective role in the dissemination of data, particularly in the modern development control process. However, despite their functionality and sustained professional use, these inventories are not unproblematic, particularly in regards to informal usage. Based on the author’s professional experience this article will discuss some of the issues which convolute the delivery of historic environment data. These issues can be grouped thematically beneath the banners of fragmentation, interoperability, and accessibility. Underpinning these three topics is the relationship between historic environment records as institutions and digitality as both a cognitive process and a distribution mechanism. From a critical perspective, the extent to which these issues reoccur and inhibit the flow of data will be highlighted by examining the historic environment practice in England and Sweden in the hope that these insights can inform the contemporary approach.

质疑历史环境记录——评英国和瑞典的持续问题

作为地方和国家文化遗产管理的支柱，历史环境记录在数据传播中发挥着有效的作用，特别是在现代发展控制过程中。然而，尽管它们的功能和持续的专业使用，这些清单并不是没有问题的，特别是在非正式使用方面。根据作者的专业经验，本文将讨论一些困扰历史环境数据交付的问题。这些问题可以按主题分为碎片化、互操作性和可访问性。支撑这三个主题的是作为制度的历史环境记录与作为认知过程和分布机制的数字化之间的关系。从批判的角度来看，这些问题再次出现和抑制数据流动的程度将通过检查英格兰和瑞典的历史环境实践来强调，希望这些见解可以为当代方法提供信息。

Launched in 1995, it is the only journal that covers both theoretical and practical issues in heritage site management and conservation. Peer-reviewed papers from around the world report on new thinking and best practice in site management and conservation. Topics covered include: •Cultural, social, ethical and theoretical issues in archaeological site management and conservation •Site management •Historical documentation and condition reporting •Site deterioration and environmental monitoring •Preventative conservation, including reburial and protective sheltering of sites •Building materials analysis and treatment •Restoration and reconstruction of buildings •Visitor management and sustainable tourism •Site interpretation •National and international legislation and charters
