Costruzione di un ecosistema informativo digitale: il caso studio del c.d. Tempio di Venere a Baia/ Designing a digital information ecosystem: the case study of the so-called Temple of Venus in Baia

The present paper aims to illustrate the strategies implemented as part of the research activities envisa¬ged within the PRIN 2022 SPLASCH project framework. Drawing on the conceptual dimension of surveying, we propose guidelines tested on the pilot case of the so-called “Tempio di Venere” in Baia to develop target-oriented strategies to enhance the cultural heritage in the Phlegraean Fields. The digital transposition of a built asset implies setting up processes encompassed in the broader concept of a monitoring ‘ecosystem’, which requires constant interdisciplinary input from different stakeholders to remain efficient. The literature sources were then integrated with TLS and photogrammetric data, initially producing orthoimages employed to update and increase the level of detail of the existing documentation regarding the temple and then feeding into a structured database underpinning the subsequent BIM modelling phase. The accurately georeferenced information model was finally linked to the ArcGIS Pro platform to facilitate future management and monitoring operations of the monument when conside¬red in its broader urban and territorial context.
