Read full description

Idese è un progetto realizzato dal Segretariato regionale del Ministero della cultura per la Sardegna con il contributo della Fondazione di Sardegna, rivolto a tutti gli amanti del patrimonio archeologico, architettonico, storico artistico, naturalistico ed etnoantropologico della Sardegna. Il nome scelto evoca (v)ides, in uso nella lingua sardo logudorese per dire “vedi” “ammira”. Idese è una guida online gratuita e senza necessità di registrazione, in grado di condurti alla scoperta dei beni culturali, tramite la funzione di navigazione “portami”. Grazie alla geolocalizzazione istantanea, Idese segnala i luoghi vicini a te e ti consente di effettuare ricerche più mirate attraverso l’interrogazione della mappa interattiva sulla quale sono posizionati punti di interesse corrispondenti a beni culturali, ciascuno corredato di breve scheda descrittiva, galleria fotografica, informazioni pratiche e di contatto. Potrai creare e modificare in qualsiasi momento il tuo itinerario, in base alle tue esigenze e alle tue necessità per godere di un’esperienza autentica. Con Idese sei protagonista e puoi partecipare alla promozione del patrimonio caricando foto, suggerendo aggiornamenti, indicando beni ancora non mappati, e condividendo le ricerche e i siti visitati. Idese infatti è una piattaforma digitale aperta e in costante aggiornamento. L’obiettivo del Segretariato è quello di offrire un’infrastruttura digitale gratuita con un’interfaccia semplice e intuitiva, alla portata di tutti e che tutti sentano come propria.
