The Telematics Center for Cultural Applications, as part of the INTERREG II programme administered by the (Greek) Ministry of National Economy has been underway since January 1998. Its very aim is the creation of an information highway linking cultural organizations in Crete, Cyprus and Egypt together with the development and adaptation and installation of existing cultural information systems (POLEMON, MAISTOR etc) to the cultural organizations of Northeastern Mediterranean Countries. The project guarantees compatibility of information structures, procedures and required technical infrastructure.
