The new boundaries of digitization: from bim to parametric modelling

Abstract

The theme of digitization and documentation, which inevitably affects the fields of surveying and designing architecture and urban areas, is constantly innovated by the new digital technologies and new multimedia communication systems that allow us to acquire, analyze and disseminate the value of our historical heritage. Research in this field pushes us to overcome the limits imposed by tested technologies in order to extend the field of application in the surveying and representation of the increasingly complex challenges imposed by the needs of conservation and maintenance. This volume, which follows on from the three previous conferences of the “Digital & Documentation” cycle that took place in Padua, Turin and Rome, brings together some of the most significant research experiences conducted by professors and industry experts that have achieved very competitive goals and objectives. The book ranges from architectural surveys to 3D models, from photomodelling to BIM and augmented reality.
