Biography
Elisabetta Caterina Giovannini received a PhD in Architecture (documentation and representation of Architectural Heritage) at Alma Mater Studiorum, University of Bologna in 2018, an M.C.S. in Digital Architecture at IUAV Architecture University of Venice in 2014 and a B. S. in Architecture in 2013 at the University of Bologna. From 2018 to 2022 she has held a postdoc position at the Department of Architecture and Design at Politecnico di Torino in Italy. She is specialised in the digital acquisition, documentation and critical analysis of the architectural and archaeological heritage through the use of the latest computer technologies, three-dimensional models and digital environments. Her research interests are related to drawing, survey and digital representation of architecture, with particular attention to classic treatises on architecture and graphical and critical analysis of architectural drawings. In recent years she has dealt with the use of IT applied to Cultural and Architectural Heritage (Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality). She also investigates the use of ontologies, BIM and H-BIM platforms to manage virtual reconstruction processes and 3D digital collections for museums.
