Fruizione digitale dei paesaggi perduti. Il sistema fortificato di Palazzo d'Avalos a Procida

The technological evolution, which the digital world is constantly imposing, now makes it possible to test new methods of investigation and multidisciplinary information management, from the architectural scale to the urban and territorial one, for the knowledge, management, and enhancement of the fortified cultural heritage. With respect to these research orientations, the contribution highlights the unprecedented potential offered by the georeferencing and digital archiving of historical sources for the re-modeling and digital gaming enjoyment of the lost fortified architectural heritage, able to tell the users of virtual tourism the memory history of a complex scenario visible today only through the sources and documents related to it. Therefore, with the opportunity to test and verify the foregoing for the architectural-fortified and landscape complex of Palazzo d’Avalos on the island of Procida in the province of Naples (Italy), the contribution highlights the integration potential of the iconographic-archival and cartographic component in the definition of a 3D game model, starting from an integrated digital survey project, exploring its possible interactions and information organization in optimized semantic instances usable in AR / VR.
