H-Bim and the Domains of Data Investigations of Heritage Buildings Current State of the Art

“…In the heritage buildings' sector many challenges are facing the implementation of Building Information Modelling (BIM) tools, such as the inevitability of starting at an intermediate point in the asset's life cycle, which can be much more complex than the relatively straightforward cradle-to-grave model that describes new-build construction (Historic England, 2017). More challenges are present in the processing of historic buildings: irregular geometry, non-homogeneous materials, variable morphology, not documented changes, damage and various stages of construction (Barazzetti and Banfi, 2017). These challenges put more weight on the surveying, documentation, modelling and visualisation phase in the process of Heritage-BIM.…”

A True AR Authoring Tool for Interactive Virtual Museums

“…[10] presented a comparison of existing MR methods for virtual museums and pointed out the importance of these three fields for applications that contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage [3]. Moreover, in [4] fundamental elements for MR applications alongside examples are presented.…”

Cultural Heritage Sites Holistic Documentation Through Semantic Web Technologies

“…With the advent of new ways of exploiting CH 3D models through VR and AR, we can be sure that a typical example of data enrichment would be through media files [6]. Images, videos, audios, texts are exploitable interchangeable formats that channel information also on the intangible culture linked to the assets.…”
