Abstract

The contribution intends to describe the experience conducted within the project, promoted by the Veneto Region, The Venetian fortifications in the eastern Mediterranean basin. The research activities, aimed at understanding and enhancing the historical and architectural heritage of the Serenissima in the Stato da Mar, have involved territories of Dalmatia and Montenegro. Research on Venetian fortifications was divided into 3 phases: historical documentation, field surveys, and analysis of the construction techniques that qualify these defensive systems, which connect the magistral walls of Verona with the Croatian coast up to Cyprus. The result of the narration of the places, through their graphic reproduction, highlights their identity characters. The creation of digital databases and 3D models allows the knowledge and maintenance of the investigated architectures. The documentary corpus of photographic images and photogrammetric models aims to create an updated archive on the works. The use of digital instruments and systems, from Terrestrial Laser Scanning to Mobile Laser Scanning to Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, with a view to a fast survey, has made a substantial census possible in a short time. The data acquired and integrated with the post-production phase favored the development of protection and management actions for these sites, also for UNESCO.
