With the continuous acceleration of urbanization, rich and diverse historical and cultural heritage is facing an increasingly severe crisis. Protecting and salvaging these heritage sites has become a primary and arduous task today. Although significant progress has been made in the conservation of existing classical gardens as important cultural heritage, there is generally a need for targeted and authentic electronic data collection technology. Poor management and uncontrollable factors have led to the significant loss of historical information in classical gardens. This has had adverse effects on the protection and restoration of garden sites. While some surviving drawings of disappeared gardens can partially reconstruct them, they cannot guarantee complete consistency in all details. Therefore, it is necessary to explore modern high-tech methods to strengthen the protection of classical garden cultural heritage.
The Knowledge Graph construction and service technology for the Classical Garden, based on multi- source data fusion, applies "AI+VR" to the exhibition and dissemination of classical gardens. This approach addresses the challenge of how to centrally display and aggregate data resources for classical gardens, which have immovable and spatial attributes, within museums. It innovates the exhibition and dissemination model for classical gardens, integrating on-site, museum, and internet-based displays.
This case achieves a comprehensive, multi-perspective presentation of the cultural essence, garden artistry, unique charm, and scientific value of the "Mother of World Gardens. " It realizes the vision of establishing a "garden field exhibition, communication, and data center," highlighting the advantages of national-level museums.
The case establises a garden data resource repository and knowledge graph, with garden historical, cultural, and artistic data resources exceeding 2 terabytes; It designs classical garden cultural and creative product conceptual materials and construction materials based on the knowledge graph and conducts research on data knowledge resource and material copyright protection technology; to develop a platform for innovative design services for classical garden cultural and creative products.Integrating new technological means and diversificed, multi-dimensional knowledge transmission, it demonstrate the scientific and entertaining aspects that exhibition design should follow, which is more beneficial for viewers’ acceptance, truly achieving the goal of education through entertainment, systematization, and uniqueness, forming a systematic knowledge system.
This case innovatively creates a classical garden exhibition model based on "AI+VR" . It establishes a display service platform built on multi-source data resources and knowledge graphs, achieving the visual representation of classical garden knowledge and information. The case constructs a classical garden knowledge graph based on multi-source data fusion and establishes a crowdsourcing model for building this knowledge graph.
Supported by modern information technology, the case aims to benefit the public through the digital cultural dissemination of gardens. With a focus on resource development and exhibition, the research investigates methods and techniques for constructing knowledge graphs of classical gardens based on multi-source data fusion. The goal is to establish a digital exhibition system for Chinese classical gardens, innovating the digital display and dissemination modes of classical gardens. This involves creating a comprehensive digital display system for classical gardens that integrates historical, educational, and aesthetic aspects, accessible through various platforms. Utilizing audiovisuals, images, texts, virtual reality simulations, and interactive features, users will be immersed in the precious exhibits of Chinese classical gardens, experiencing the profound historical and cultural heritage and the artistic charm of Chinese garden culture. The case aims to comprehensively present the essential characteristics, development history, cultural inheritance, and diverse functions of classical gardens, serving the public and, promoting the art of garden design and disseminating historical culture.
