Anagrafe della ricerca

For anastylosis, historical data, temporal analyses and the current study of the element, are fundamental components that serve as a basis for decision making in CH reconstruction, restoration, management and dissemination. The ambitious purpose of AVATAR (Application of Virtual Anastylosis Techniques for Architectural Research) project is to contribute to anastylosis techniques with a new approach based on the latest technological fields. AVATAR intends to develop and optimize a set of procedures and tools to interpret the structural and conservation status in the architectural heritage, supporting decision-making and promoting the change of current practices towards preventive approaches to conservation, under the slogan It is better to prevent than cure. Thanks to our knowledge of the history of CH assets, it will be possible to prevent their deterioration in the future. These developments will contribute towards European excellence, enriching the society and helping in the cultural integration of the respected assets.
