Abstract
This paper discusses a novel metadata element set for
describing cultural heritage objects and their digital
representations, which is particularly useful for building
virtual exhibitions. The element set is based on several
international standards and current best practice in
museums. Additional elements are used for describing new
types of data used in virtual exhibitions and taking into
account new ways of using that data. The implementation of
the element set and a number of tools used to manipulate
the metadata descriptions in the ARCO project are
described.
