Digitalizzazione integrata e prospettive per la gestione del patrimonio industriale: il caso del Civico Museo Setificio Monti

Advances in surveying and digitization techniques have increased access to complex data about architecturalheritage. For historic industrial buildings, which feature diverse construction layers, specific materials, and intricate spaces,creating an information system capable of collecting, organizing, and providing access to this data is crucial forunderstanding, monitoring, and planning interventions. A 3D digital model of the building is ideal for gatheringmultidisciplinary data necessary for effective conservation. However, it is vital to explore simpler, maintainable solutionsthat follow open standards, can handle diverse data types, and are accessible to technicians, researchers, and museum staffwithout specialized training. This study proposes using point clouds as the core of an information system for the CivicMuseum of Setificio Monti in Abbadia Lariana, a prominent mid-19th-century silk-spinning mill. The system combineshistorical documentation, diagnostic surveys, and maintenance data to support conservation planning and make industrialheritage information easily accessible and interoperable.
