Summary
The Florence Heritage Data System introduces a novel model for monitoring and evaluating UNESCO World Heritage Sites, specifically applied to the Historic Centre of Florence. This system integrates data and techniques to assess architectural and urban restoration projects within dynamic historic landscapes, providing critical support for Periodic Reports and evaluations under the Historic Urban Landscape (HUL) framework. By identifying 'elements of heritage' within transformation projects, it aids in diagnostics, cataloging, and cartographic activities, ensuring compliance with UNESCO's regulations on World Heritage (HIA). Developed as a tool for the Florence World Heritage Office, this model enhances the protection, management, and knowledge-sharing of cultural heritage, addressing challenges posed by territorialized transformations.
