Ontologie e modelli di dati per l’informazione spaziale dei Beni Architettonici

Architectonical Heritage presents a wide quantity and heterogeneity of data, which it is necessary to manage in a suitable way in order to obtain an efficient information. The exigencies and the requirements always stated (unique catalogue methods, sharing and communication of the information for the preservation and the valorisation) are further confirmed by the information and web technologies: logics and informatics tools developed by these sectors can be efficiently employed for representation and metric documentation goals. Spatial information, following specific standards, must be managed in a suitable way in order not to lose the characteristic complexity of Architectonical Heritage and must be integrated with the thematic information which unavoidably enrich the representation. Existing standards are used, integrated, in order to obtain a data structuring which can respond to the exigencies of interoperability stated by the web and by the international organisations. Theoretical solutions are here tested on a case study.
