I wonder if the file format they use to store the digitised plans will still be readable 300 years from now.

- walrus01 7y agoArchitectural plans in vector format are quite small in file size. I imagine it will be more of a ship of theseus type situation, where the files reside on one big NAS/SAN type system (which of course has backups) and are migrated while online to new bigger storage systems over time, repeat several many dozen times.
