Heritage Monitor transforms vast datasets from European research initiatives into actionable intelligence. Drawing from 176,000+ institutions, 92,000+ research projects, and 856,000+ research outputs, we let you identify experts, analyze funding patterns, collaboration networks, minority related research and (in development) research trends. This enables policy makers, researchers, and institutions to make data-driven decisions that shape the future of cultural heritage.
