“…However, it is important to note the trends in the geographical information methods and tools for landscape management. A contribution to the comprehension of landscape values, considering the cultural heritage and the cities as sum of natural transformation, historical stratification of built environments and human activities, has derived from multitemporal geo-data hubs (Brumana et al 2018, Previtali & Latre, 2018.…”

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Historical small urban centres are of increasing interest to different interacting fields such as architectural heritage protection and conservation, urban planning, disaster response, sustainable development and tourism. They are defined at different levels (international, national, regional), by various organizations and standards, incorporate numerous aspects (natural and built environment, infrastructures and open spaces, social, economic, and cultural processes, tangible and intangible heritage) and face various challenges (urbanization, globalization, mass tourism, climate change, etc.). However, their current specification within large-scale geospatial databases is similar to those of urban areas in a broad sense resulting in the loss of many aspects forming this multifaceted concept. The present study considers the available ontologies and data models, coming from various domains and having different granularities and levels of detail, to represent historical small urban centres information. The aim is to define the needs for extension and integration of them in order to develop a multidisciplinary, integrated semantic representation. Relevant conventions and other legislation documents, ontologies and standards for cultural heritage (CIDOC-CRM, CRMgeo, Getty Vocabularies), 3D city models (CityGML), building information models (IFC) and regional landscape plans are analysed to identify concepts, relations, and semantic features that could form a holistic semantic model of historical small urban centres.</p>

“…Different information can be updated due to the richness of the DB that has been generated on the base of the HBIM Information input data describing the richness and peculiarity of the vaults: different properties have been inserted in the DB, among which: (i) the building typology the vaults belong to, (ii) the geographic position (latitude, longitude); (iii) the main typology of vault elements, (iv) the sub-typology encountered by the vault HBIM analysis and characterizing each components, (v) the constructive components of The aforementioned examples are just samples to start testing the platform, a Geographic Data Base Hub, (GEODB HUB), linked with: (i) 3D models coming from detailed surveying, (ii) the HBIM from Scan-to-BIM processes, (iii) orthophotos of the intrados and extrados coming from photogrammetry, (iv) texturing detection. An application, GeoPAN APP (Previtali and Latre, 2018) has been developed to access and query the GEODB and it is conceived to support spatial and temporal queries.…”

In the last years many efforts have been invested in the cultural heritage digitization: surveying, modelling, diagnostic analysis and historic data collection. Nowadays, this effort is finalized in many cases towards the Historical Building Information Modelling. The number of informative models testifying the multifaceted richness and unicity of the architectural heritage and its components is progressively increasing. Information and Model are generally acquired under researches and analysis phases addressed to the preservation and restoration process. Unfortunately, once concluded the research such documentation is mostly left abandoned in the drawers or in the local memory of the computers, and in some cases totally missed. Just a few of them are saved in a server or in the cloud for the duration of the restoration, but without any connection with the maintenance process of historic architectures or knowledge transfer purposes and dissemination. This data loss would lead to the breaking of the cycle of past, present and future, with loss of memory and knowledge. The paper start facing the aspect of managing the information and models acquired on the case of vaulted systems. Information is collected within a semantic based hub platform to perform cross co-relation at a PanEuropean level. Such functionality allows to reconstruct the rich history of the construction techniques and skilled workers across Europe, enriched by 3 case studies surveyed in Prague region. To this purpose a Vault DB has been undertaken with a Vocabulary enriched by the granular information gained from the HBIM models, and with the vault sub-typologies highlighted by a detailed surveying. This paper focuses its attention on vaulted systems. Indeed, vaulted systems are characterized by a variety of solutions developed across time and space, and whose knowledge is generally obtained during researches, or analysis and diagnostic

“…The increasing of Open Data availability of historical and current information through Spatial Data Infrastructure to support landscape analysis and planning has been increasing for many years (Brumana at al., 2013), allowing to access to different geodata informative layers; in the meanwhile innovative Virtual hubs (Mazzetti, 2015) for facilitating access to open data coming from different sources (i.e. regional and national geoportal, archives, municipality territorial sites) has been adopted to facilitate the generation of advanced web applications based on the historical maps together with other data, as in the case of risk map data (Previtali et al, 2018). The PPR layer deployed by Lombardy Region can be in the future easily brokered by such hubs in order to facilitate their discovery by the professionals and their on site desktop use within common open source GIS (as QGIS) or commercial licenses.…”

One of the main goals of the Lombardy Region Landscape Plan (Piano Paesaggistico Regionale -PPR) review was to set up a detailed investigation of landscape binding actions that are issued according to article 136 of the Code of Cultural Heritage and Landscape (D.Lgs. 42/2004). To achieve this goal, a survey was launched and a geo-referenced database was constructed, considering all the data included in the 888 landscape binding actions currently in force in Lombardy. The geo-referenced database takes into account also other architectural preservation measures and natural landscape protections, because a large quantity areas in Lombardy are safeguarded as Regional Parks and Natural Monuments, ecological corridors, geosites and various zones with natural significance are issued as ZPS and SIC by UE. Databases from other agencies and institutions were collected, examined and updated, to provide a complete tool, usable by public administrations and professionals. Such database can also be integrated by multi-temporal geoinformation availability of applications implemented to manage and share georeferenced historical maps (i.e. GEOPAN ATL@S APP), boosting the utility of these data sets in the daily professional activity 1 .* Corresponding author 1 The present work was conceived and written jointly by the three authors. In particular, Alberta Cazzani developed sections 2 and 3, Stefano Coloru developed section 4, Monica Aresi developed section 5, and Daniela Giannoccaro developed section 6. The authors collaborated in the writing of the Abstract, Introduction and Conclusions, and for the final revision of the manuscript.
