Abstract
Starting from a recognition of the progressive settlement of the conception of cultural heritage through years, and the role that digital technologies have played, the contribution analyses how ICT (information communication technology) solutions, altogether intended, could provide a new human centrality in interpretation and presentation of cultural heritage. This opportunity is provided from the experience of INCIPICT project (INnovating CIty Planning through Information and Communications Technology), developed in L'Aquila since 2012. Within its framework, several reflections and applications on the field of cultural heritage have been developed to achieve results in terms of theory and praxis on the route toward a culture-based smart society.
