Digital Preservation of Architectural Heritage through BIM

A groundbreaking methodology leveraging Historic Building Information Modelling (HBIM) demonstrates the potential for digital preservation of architectural heritage, addressing critical gaps in interoperability and information management. The study focuses on the Pavillion of Charles V in Seville, a UNESCO-listed Renaissance structure, using 3D modeling informed by photogrammetry and laser scanning to create an accurate representation of its flooring and tiling. This approach facilitates collaboration among diverse disciplines involved in conservation, enabling the simulation of past or future conditions while maintaining transparency and data exchange. The research highlights the need for standardized international protocols to manage complex heritage information, offering a scalable solution for documenting and preserving cultural landmarks.
