"This book explores how digital technologies for architectural heritage surveying, modeling and representation have produced important methodological changes in tools and media dedicated to architectural heritage. Particularly, technologies of laser scanning and photogrammetry, and advanced software of modeling and data analysis, have focused the process of historical and critical knowledge on the use of complex 3D models"--
Brusaporci's main emphasis is on opportunities that digital technologies offer for conservation, and consequently for knowledge, interpretation, presentation, sustainability, and management. He pays special attention to architectural heritage, but begins not with historic buildings but with general issues of conservation using digital technologies, then shows how they apply to architectural heritage. His topics are the multiple dimensions of conservation; between Cuvier and Darwin: issues in a changing heritage; the new relationship with digital heritage; and Kalliope or on interpretation, presentation, and participation: models in architectural heritage conservation.
