This book presents a comprehensive methodology, integrating analysis, digitization, and the preservation of cultural heritage. It investigates three potential UNESCO World Heritage Sites, in Italy, Germany and South Africa, and employs a blend of documentary research and advanced digital surveying and data processing techniques.
The volume shows how these efforts yielded actionable strategies to meet society's evolving demands for surveying, recovery, and conservation. The book documents the work behind the overarching objective which was to digitize, analyze, categorize, and store all collected data within a BIM framework, with the aim of streamlining collaboration, enhancing management efficiency, and optimizing processes. It demonstrates the utilization of digital tools in not only amplifying traditional scientific-technological approaches to heritage protection, but also its role in reshaping the perception, comprehension, and communication of heritage. This fosters the development of more sustainable conservation strategies.
