From the point cloud to the parametric model: strategies of intervention

The volume presents the outcomes of the research and experimental activities carried out in the Upper Kama region within the EU-funded project PROMETHEUS – PROtocols for information Models librariEs Tested on HEritage of Upper Kama Sites (H2020 MSCA-RISE-2018 GA 821870). The work addressed the religious heritage that shapes the area's historical landscape, developing a territorial-regional cultural route that connects religious architecture, historic settlements, cultural landscapes, and networks distributed along the Kama River. The project involved lecturers, researchers and students from different disciplinary fields and proposed an integrated approach to historical and architectural heritage, combining critical interpretation, digital survey, 3D modelling and information systems. Within this framework, PROMETHEUS investigated the application of BIM to heritage contexts, testing digital and cognitive protocols for the representation, management and enhancement of European cultural heritage.
