Summary

A comprehensive digital health record for monument preservation has been developed, offering a detailed diagnosis of structural degradation at the Château de Chambord in France. This approach integrates 3D modeling, photogrammetry, laser scanning, and historical archives to create a spatially referenced database that tracks deterioration patterns with high precision. The NUBES platform serves as the foundation for this health record, enabling real-time monitoring and restoration planning by associating degradation data directly with the monument's digital twin. This method enhances the accuracy of conservation efforts by combining in situ surveys with advanced imaging techniques and archival research.
