Assessing the risk value of artefacts using tele-heritage pilot study, allows for the the application of the concept of teleconferencing, to other facets of conservation research .The meetings via videoconference enabled various conservators from different partner institutions to discuss artefacts from the databank and establish a method of treatment on the artefact.
Various expert meetings have taken place including European funded expert networks, which were also transmitted over the satellite bandwidth pool and which promoted collaboration and cooperation via videoconferencing.
