Cultural Heritage After Covid. Interoperable Pompeii. A digital platform between restoration, environmental design and new opportunities for use

The strategies related to the Italian territory in the post-Covid scenarios (de-congest, de-localise, de-centralise, de-seasonalise, diversify) require new management tools capable of implementing a control that considers both the level of risk of the national territory and the vulnerability of the heritage, often increased by inadequate maintenance.
CHEAC aims to rethink the use of a demonstrator archaeological site (Archaeological Park of Pompeii) by combining the demands of a safe perception of the archaeological heritage with those of a direct, rationalised, and augmented experience thanks to the use of new interoperable technologies. To this end, the project proposes the development of a web-based “enabling digital platform” for the knowledge, restoration, environmental rehabilitation, use, management, and safety of the archaeological site, defining a digital ecosystem of cultural heritage that reconnects all the actors involved in the process, enabling the exchange of information, including with the public, through digital information modelling technologies.
