Summary

A Spatial Information System (SIS) integrating Close Range Photogrammetry (CRP) and other advanced survey technologies demonstrates significant potential for enhancing the documentation, monitoring, maintenance, and conservation of cultural heritage sites. The study highlights how SIS can efficiently manage diverse data types, including raster imagery, 3D point clouds, and vector data, while connecting spatial elements to attribute tables. A case study at Paestum's 'Porta Sirena' archaeological site illustrates the practical efficiency of this approach, showcasing its utility for heritage documentation in UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
