In addition, tangible cultural heritage has been subject to war destruction and the only feasible option for reconstructing some of them is digitalization. On the contrary, the intangible cultural heritage encompassing oral traditions and expressions, traditional skills, as well as science and habits related to nature and world are a vital expression of cultural heritage and in the need of preservation. Over the past years, with the availability of technology and the identified research interest and the potential, significant progress has been made towards the preservation of cultural heritage. Motivated by these facts, this state-of-the-art report summarizes recent trends and discusses its value to the society. This paper therefore, gives an overview of the tools and the current state of digitalization of cultural heritage sites in BiH in an attempt of contributing to its preservation. a16130073 (ISSN)
