The Temple of Apollo on the Cycladic Island of Naxos is the latest addition to the Google Arts & Culture platform and its Open Heritage Gateway, to digitally record important monuments in the world, ANA reports.
Google launched the Open Heritage Gateway last year on the occasion of World Heritage Day, and has since been adding to its database info and videos giving 3D views of the monuments.
This year the company announced it has further expanded this programme, making the history and data of digitised monuments available to future generations of researchers and students. The collection includes emblematic monuments as well as “amazing places that have been damaged by war and modern development,” Google said on its site.
