Abstract
<jats:p xml:lang="en">The volume introduces the theoretical, methodological and operational framework of the EU-funded project PROMETHEUS – PROtocols for information Models librariEs Tested on HEritage of Upper Kama Sites (H2020 MSCA-RISE-2018 GA 821870). It presents the strategies developed to integrate digital survey, 3D modelling, HBIM systems and information platforms for the documentation, interpretation and enhancement of European cultural heritage. PROMETHEUS tested digital and cognitive protocols addressing the challenges of applying BIM processes to historical and architectural heritage, where complexity, stratification and irregularity require specific tools for representation and knowledge management. Within this perspective, the volume provides the general framework for the following studies on the cultural routes investigated by the project: the fortified system of Gdańsk at the urban scale, the architectures and symbolic places associated with Jaime I in the Valencian territory, and the religious heritage of the Upper Kama at the territorial-regional scale</jats:p>
