The document summarizes the ArcheoNet project, an open initiative to create a news portal about archaeology and heritage in Flanders. It later led to other projects including Erf-goed.be, a website that crowdsources geotagged photographs of protected heritage sites from volunteers. The approach was dynamic and open, using free tools like Flickr, WordPress and geotagging to engage civil society in documenting heritage without funds or technical expertise. Three years later, over 6,500 photos were contributed by 200 people, showing the strategy of an open and participatory approach online was successful.
