ABSTRACT:The paper outlines basic concepts of the system for indoor climate monitoring being currently developed in a four-year project. The project concentrates on building system of sensors, the related infrastructure for communication between these sensors and the server for centralized data storage and processing. The components of the planned system are highly modular for adjustment to specific requirements of given collection. The project's aim is to provide basis for remote monitoring of indoor climate and environment of exhibitions and depositories of museums, galleries, archives, etc. situated in historical buildings like castles, chateaus, town halls, where the protection of the building limits measures for indoor climate optimization. Finally the expected outcomes envisage the development of specialized sensors mainly for pest control and development of portable version of data sensing units for supervision of environmental parameters of collection during transport.
Abstract The article is a brief description of the content and the objectives of a joint project that is entitled „The Analysis, Description and Archiving of Comprehensive Information concerning the properties of Cultural Heritage Artifacts and the Usage of such Data during Restoration, Conservation and Research“ that is carried out at various departments of the National Museum and of the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and of the Faculty of Arts of Charles University within the Applied Research and Development of National and Cultural Identity Programme (NAKI) that is funded by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic. It also provides some examples of the results that were achieved during the first year of the project.
