Multi-Scale Digital Surveying Strategy for Documenting and Disseminating the History of the Church of San Giorgio in Salerno


Abstract


The paper reveals the outcomes of research efforts aimed at documenting lesser-known religious architectures using virtual databases created from a variety of digital surveying technologies employing a multi-scale approach. Through experimental research conducted on the Church of San Giorgio in collaboration with the Archdiocese of Salerno-Campagna-Acerno, this study highlights the transformative impact of technology on preserving the city’s cultural heritage. This involves streamlining documentation procedures and improving heritage management practices. Moreover, this integrated and interdisciplinary approach holds promise in facilitating decision-making processes related to conservation, restoration, and maintenance efforts. The outcomes of this research are shared with both academic and public audiences, fostering greater awareness and appreciation of Salerno’s religious heritage.
