Educational projects such as this one, which were originally completed in analog form, can be digitized directly using 3D scanning technology, and the data can be widely disseminated and exchanged online. As a result, various collaborations within and outside of the municipality may become easier to implement.

The Kurayoshi City Hall General Affairs Department, Planning Division, Art Museum Town Development Promotion Office, which is in charge of this project, says, "When the Kurayoshi Prefectural Art Museum was being built, Kurayoshi City was involved in an analog diorama production project with the aim of "having children imagine an 'ideal Kurayoshi City'". The city of Kurayoshi had been working on an analog diorama for the purpose of "having children imagine an 'ideal Kurayoshi City. By archiving the diorama in digital data, we will be able to transmit the information to people outside the city via the web, and children will be able to look back at their own works anytime and anywhere. We would like to continue exploring the use of digital technology in education.
