Abstract. The work that is presented here shows the results of the survey and material characterization campaign, performed through digital information acquisition and management processes of the Temple of Venus in Baia, in the framework of the activities by the Departments of Civil, Building, and Environmental Engineering of the University of Naples Federico II, in agreement with the Archaeological Park of Campi Flegrei. The artifact stands as a deeply interesting example of an architectural palimpsest, which - despite being involved by significant structural reinforcement interventions - presents interesting technical solutions, to be further investigated in their singularity and specificity. Unfortunately, it cannot be currently visited, until the execution of works to guarantee its complete and safe accessibility, also in terms of structural safety. The use of digital methodologies for data acquisition, in the integration of range and image-based survey techniques, and their semantic de-discretization has allowed systematizing the developed knowledge into models that can be easily queried and implemented over time, where both the geometric and the information component are indispensable for orienting and elaborating a conscious and articulate restoration project, as required by this building.

<p>Dentro del ámbito del conocimiento  y de la valorización del patrimonio cultural, las técnicas destinadas al levantamiento ofrecen grandes oportunidades en virtud de la evolución tecnológica, que subyacen en el potencial comunicativo de las imágenes digitales. En esa dirección, la investigación aquí presentada ha sido desarrollada sobre los restos de una antigua terma ubicada en un área  urbanizada de la ciudad de Nápoles. El estudio tiene una doble connotación, siendo capaz de crear un estrecho vínculo entre didáctica e investigación. De hecho, el sitio ha sido utilizado como taller didáctico al aire libre para trabajo de campo  y al mismo tiempo la investigación puesta en marcha ha sido propicia para comparar críticamente las diferentes técnicas de levantamiento indirecto utilizadas, evaluando resultados y potencial comunicativo,  allí donde la visualización digital constituye sin duda un cambio fundamental en el modelo cognitivo del patrimonio cultural.</p>
