“…Indeed, a comprehensive view of the possibilities for the generation and management of knowledge makes it necessary to pay attention to several topics, among which it is worth mentioning the conceptual modeling of elements of heritage [34], which includes the elaboration of knowledge graphs and timelines for improving the understanding and visualization of the elements of heritage and their relationships [35,36] and the formalization following standardized and machine-readable descriptions (e.g., RDF) for their implementation [37]. In addition, special mention should be made of the management via georeferenced databases (geographic information systems-GIS) and databases linked to 3D models (building information modeling-BIM) [38] and its application to cultural heritage building information models (HBIM) with a significant number of examples regarding restoration [39] and preventive conservation [40,41]. New conceptual and technological possibilities should be considered as a complement to the digital asset management (DAM) systems that, currently, are in use in many cultural organizations for the storage of multimedia files, data recovery, documentary analysis and so on [42].…”

The Role of Information Management for the Sustainable Conservation of Cultural Heritage

Central to the entire discipline of heritage restoration and conservation is the concept of information management. Nevertheless, traditionally, conservation and restoration has been a poorly documented discipline, which has led not only to a lack of standardization and awareness about the processes carried out in the past, but also poses problems both when new restoration works are necessary and for the preventive conservation of the elements of heritage. This study sets out to propose a conceptual framework to explore the relationship between conservation of heritage and information management on the basis of case studies; in particular: a spatial data infrastructure (SDI) of a regional government concerning an endangered plant (wild grapevine) with an important potential for cultural and touristic uses in a wine-making region; an open data guide—the Digital Guide of Andalusian Cultural Heritage; a university repository connected to Europeana, which contains reports and outcomes of projects of geometric documentation of elements of heritage; a repository of an organization in charge of the protection and care of the heritage; and finally, two examples of the use of heritage building information models (HBIM) in complex monuments. After discussing the characteristics of each case, this paper concludes that, although the availability of information and tools is growing, further progress is still necessary concerning the interoperability, outreach and reuse of the different solutions.

“…The repositories that are generated become the center of all the information related to the heritage building, which can be consulted in an intelligent way and can be used for the building investigation, conservation, management and administration [8], [52]. However, three main issues must be addressed: lack of standardization, insufficient interoperability, and inherent complexity of information.…”

The consolidation of BIM work environments and the efficient management of construction information are reaching previously forgotten facets of the buildings' life cycle. Preventive conservation and maintenance, which affect the building operation that accounts for 80% of CO2 emissions, are being subject to an improvement in their procedures based on the digitization of information. These actions are reaching historical buildings where procedures are not only being developed to improve their maintenance, but also in areas such as historical documentation and cultural management. The generation of repositories with documentation of the buildings is making it possible to establish new relationships with society, improving the conservation of buildings and designing actions that avoid future risks. There are different types of maintenance: corrective, preventive and predictive and despite its advantages, the agents in charge of these buildings do not always perform it properly. Furthermore, dysfunctions and lack of coordination are detected as many agents act without having adequate information. To solve these problems, BIM work environments are positioned as a valid alternative since they provide a centralized and updated repository where the information is arranged so that it is available to the different agents when they need it. This information can be historical or technical, including digital models and evaluation of deterioration and intervention processes. The objective of this research is the development of an analysis of the degree of implementation of BIM strategies applied to preventive maintenance in historic buildings and the analysis of the investigations carried out. This work is part of the first results of the research project entitled "Analysis and Development of the integration of BHIM in GIS for the creation of a tourist planning protocol of the cultural heritage of a destination (HBIMSIG-TOURISM)" granted by the Ministry of Research of Spain under the 2020 call for R&D&I Projects oriented to the Challenges of the Society with the reference PID2020-119088RB-I00.

“…This strategy can save more than 50% of the total maintenance cost if the cause of damage is addressed directly, minimising the risk of chemical and physical degradation processes. In the context of built environment, cultural heritage is commonly named as HBIM (Historic Building Information Modelling) and is being usually focused on the digitization of historic assets as in libraries [6]. Published literature [7][8][9] has shown a diagnosis of the construction with an assessment of each element of the building, generating a three-dimensional information model.…”

BIM-Based Methodology for the Management of Public Heritage. CASE Study: Algeciras Market Hall

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is modifying the workflow of the construction field, not only in design and construction stages but also for the management of the facilities. Most advances in academics and industry have focussed on the use of BIM for building. However, the possibilities of the use of three-dimensional information models for the construction and management of public works and civil engineering infrastructure projects (known as CIM) are still a matter of concern, being complex though offering a wider number of possibilities when compared with regular building industry. Moreover, the construction process in comparison with its lifespan represent only a small part of the investments for the use of public works. With this background, the possibilities based on BIM for the maintenance and rehabilitation of public heritage (HCIM) can greatly improve traditional management capabilities. Making best use of BIM and digitalisation for the management of public heritage (HCIM) requires creating tools for documentation, registering and data management to permit the adequate information transfer between the actors involved. Such actors may be experts or not and hold or not skills to use BIM tools. This study proposes the creation of a database to support the regular inspection during the lifespan of the infrastructure and connect it with the three-dimensional information model, serving the latter as an information repository of the whole life of the infrastructure. Such data include damage and causes as well as a description of the pathology and this information is referred to each element, showing all the historic measures taken. In addition, quantification and quotation of the repairs needed can be obtained. Lastly, the study has applied this methodology in Algeciras Market Hall, the notorious rationalist building designed by the engineer Eduardo Torroja and built in 1935. The results shown in this study can be of great interest for both researchers and practice, with an adaptation and innovation of the BIM and HCIM possibilities.
