Abstract
The destruction of cultural heritage by human or natural causes isn’t new, but the way we can help is. Although the original artifacts and structures can never be replaced, their cultural memory can be preserved thanks to uniting web development, image-based reconstructions, and crowdsourcing. Building on its first version as Project Mosul, associated with the demolition of archaeological sites and museums in northern Iraq, Rekrei pushes this development and vision internationally to regions in Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas.
