| Summary: | Malaysia possesses a rich tangible cultural heritage, and efforts are underway to preserve and manage it through heritage data documentation and information systems. Built heritage data documentation plays a vital role in heritage conservation and management by recording and documenting information about existing buildings and heritage sites. Despite the importance of these heritage data systems for site management, conservation, and public mediation, their implementation faces challenges. To better understand these challenges, this paper presents a qualitative study conducted through focus group interviews with stakeholders and conservation experts on 14th to 15th June 2023. The primary objective is to investigate deficiencies in current heritage data documentation practices, particularly in the context of large data management and knowledge sharing among heritage conservation stakeholders. As a result, the study proposes a theme on issues related to heritage data documentation and information. © 2024 by MIP.
