Abstract

The huge diffusion of Building Information Modeling approaches in the field of architectural design has characterized the research of the last decades; however very little research has been undertaken to explore the advantages and criticalities of BIM methodologies in Cultural Heritage domain. Moreover, the last developments in digital photogrammetry lead to easily generate reliable low cost 3D textured models, that can be used to create semantic-aware objects of reusable library of historical architectural elements. The aim is to test a novel workflow practitioner centered, based on the use of the latest solutions for point cloud managing into BIM.
