All heritage interpretation is complex. It is often based on uncertain information, or information extrapolated from other sites. Sites may cover many periods or have had varying functions and consequently there may be different possible interpretations; differing opinions; different stories to tell (multivocality); different technologies to survey the site; different algorithms to analyse the data; several ways to visualize the data; and many ways to depict, display and present the information.
There are many display technologies to display and interact with heritage information, from mobile devices, larger desktop screens, massive Powerwall displays, tangible models to virtual walkthroughs in a virtual-world.
