Abstract
Abstract. The house and farm of Valflores, located near Lisbon, are an important evidence of the Portuguese Renaissance civil architecture from the first half of 16th century, built by Jorge de Barros, the overseer of the Portuguese king, D. João III, in Flanders. Its style has its roots in Italian villas. As was common at that time, the property was a villeggiatura site. In 1982 the house and the farm were listed as property of public interest. In 2000 the property was inserted in a Portuguese list of heritage at risk and in 2001 the property was in a state of pre-ruin. It was bought by the municipality in 2006. After 2007 a partnership between a Local Heritage Association (ADPAC), the Municipality of Loures and the Lisbon School of Architecture developed a series of initiatives for the safeguard and restoration of this Heritage. Several studies were performed, including multiple three-dimensional surveys on several occasions. Ultimately, these studies led to the development of a restoration project in 2016 for European funds application. At the present date, the restoration works are going on. The objective of this paper is the discussion of how three-dimensional documentation played a fundamental role on the several stages of this process, namely after 2007, permitting to gain insights about metrics, space and form distributions, deformations, structural condition, state of conservation, history, and allowing dissemination and public engagement.
Highlights
Heritage restoration and rehabilitation are multidisciplinary activities that require inputs from diverse fields of knowledge such as architecture, engineering, archaeology, surveying, among others
For this paper we are mostly concerned with graphical information and the one that can be obtained with photogrammetry and laser scanning
Direct observation is fundamental in restoration and, it can be enhanced by indirect methods like laser scanning or photogrammetry, it cannot be replaced by them
Summary
Heritage restoration and rehabilitation are multidisciplinary activities that require inputs from diverse fields of knowledge such as architecture, engineering, archaeology, surveying, among others. For the professionals of conservation, data generated with these methods is used to produce plans, sections, and elevations of the existing buildings, 3D modelling, pathology assessment, structural integrity verification, stratigraphic analysis, and for communication purposes. Not substituting direct contact with the built fabric, these methods allow virtual visits to the sites to clarify multiple issues. They minimize the need to visit them physically (Hoon, 2019; Remondino et al, 2010; Mateus et al, 2019a; Mateus et al, 2019b). Social networks, or video games, the public can access this type of information In this way, the public can engage with heritage, raise awareness to heritage values and contribute to heritage preservation (Fernández et al, 2019)
