The conference is supported by ISPRS ( WG V/1, WG V/2 WG II/8, WG VI/2) and CIPA Heritage Documentation and is under the patronage of “Commissione Nazionale Italiana per UNESCO”, MIBACT, ICOMOS – Italy, Città Metropolitana di Firenze, Municipality of Firenze, UNIFI and SIFET. The Conference will take place in Florence, Italy (22 – 24 May 2017) with the aim of bringing together the community of researchers in geomatics and restoration.

Beginning with the principal output coming from all technologies – 3D point clouds – a myriad of new representations are offered for planning and analysis of conservation projects, and for disseminating information about heritage sites as well as many new problems. But traditionally specialists in geomatics and restorers approach cultural heritage from different perspectives. For example, data producers often overestimate the importance of accuracy, while data users do not appreciate the importance of correct methodology in creating a reliable survey of an architectural complex. Sharing, exchanging, and exploring new approaches, good practices, and research results in this cross-disciplinary arena should be helpful in order to develop a common language and to share common goals.
