Abstract

Abstract. The aim of the paper is to study the characteristics of different 3D digital models (point clouds, mesh, CSG, BIM) for the realization of a museum of historical buildings widespread in the territory of South Tyrol through the 3D modeling of several farmhouses between the towns of Collalbo, Longomoso and Siffiano, in the Renon area. Therefore, moving from a defined case study, the paper proposes a workflow for model choice, use, and sharing considering also users profile.The objective is to create a system that allows, the sharing, both on site and remotely, of farmhouses digital models, information, images and documents found during the research. The purpose is to enhance the territory with the promotion of its knowledge taking into account also the importance of the participative aspects. In fact, in this system, are crucial and are a fundamental part of the safeguarding process, effectively increasing the information content and filling any information gaps, allowing the system to grow and become increasingly considerable and effective for the knowledge, documentation and enhancement of the territory.

Highlights

  • According to the well-known concept of “Interpretation” as conceived by “The ICOMOS Charter (2008) for the Interpretation and Presentation of Cultural Heritage”, the activities of raising public awareness and improving the understanding of cultural heritage play a central role for the safeguard, communication and enhancement of the heritage itself

  • The study focuses on the important architectural heritage of the territory of South Tyrol through the proposal of a virtual museum and 3D modeling of several farmhouses between the towns of Collalbo, Longomoso and Siffiano, in the Renon area (Figure 1)

  • Starting from 3D models, the technologies of virtual reality and augmented reality will be used to propose a hypothesis of a diffused digital museum whose key points are some of the traditional architectural and landscape elements of South Tyrol (Brusaporci, 2018a)

Summary

Introduction

According to the well-known concept of “Interpretation” as conceived by “The ICOMOS Charter (2008) for the Interpretation and Presentation of Cultural Heritage”, the activities of raising public awareness and improving the understanding of cultural heritage play a central role for the safeguard, communication and enhancement of the heritage itself. For this reason, the proposal of a digital system for the use of the cultural heritage identifiable in the whole of the bauernhöfe in Renon is an irreplaceable engine for the protection awareness of the construction and functional Alpine and, Trentino-Alto Adige tradition. Our proposal intends to act as a model of approach to a heritage that is not easy to use directly (all the farms identified maintain traditional agricultural functions) and that in digital technologies find an optimal infrastructure for their awareness and protection
