en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Government of the Russian Federation has approved the "Strategic Directions for Digital Transformation of the Cultural Sector of the Russian Federation until 2030," which aims to advance the digitalization process in the cultural field and outlines a series of priorities and specific targets.

The previous relevant government decree, namely Government Order No. 3550-r of December 11, 2023 (which approved the strategic directions in this area), has been deemed invalid.

According to the newly issued strategic directions, priorities include: improving citizens' access to digital forms of cultural wealth across regions to eliminate territorial inequality; ensuring the integrity, consistency, and timeliness of national data in the cultural sector; achieving "digital maturity" in the cultural field; creating digital conditions for citizens' self-realization, talent development, and increased participation in cultural activities; and introducing artificial intelligence technologies for automating the registration and documentation of cultural heritage objects, as well as visual search and object identification in museum affairs.

The strategic directions propose that by 2030, efforts should be made to increase citizens' satisfaction with the work of national and municipal institutions in culture, arts, and folk creativity. Specific tasks include: automating service delivery processes in the cultural sector, covering venue or area reservations for entertainment events, ticket purchases, and expanded information services on cultural events for preferential groups; ensuring the integrity, timeliness, and reliability of data on national cultural heritage objects by integrating the "Cultural Heritage of the Peoples of the Russian Federation" national service platform with the Unified State Register of Real Estate, the federal state geographic information system "Unified Digital Platform 'National Spatial Data System'," and regional information systems for registering cultural heritage objects, while transitioning public services to electronic form to shorten the cycle for obtaining and providing relevant information; and introducing artificial intelligence for automating image classification during museum object registration, identifying duplicate museum objects, and recognizing characters in archival documents, while also transitioning public services to electronic form to shorten the cycle for obtaining and providing information on objects and collections in the Museum Fund of the Russian Federation.
