The Heritage at Risk Summer School 2026, organised in collaboration with the 3D-4CH Project and in the framework of 3DBigDataSpace, brough together experts, researchers, and practitioners to explore this question through advanced 3D documentation methods.

Participants gained insights into:

  • European and international frameworks for heritage protection
  • Case studies from earthquake zones and war-affected regions
  • 3D reconstruction and modelling approaches
  • Practical workflows in photogrammetry, laser scanning, and mobile mapping
  • Data processing techniques for heritage documentation

The Summer School relied on a heavily relevant practical component. Participants attending in Ferrara worked directly with:

  • Static laser scanners
  • Photogrammetry tools
  • Mobile mapping systems (NavVis)

The Summer School was aimed at cultural heritage professionals, researchers and students, architects and urban planners, digital heritage and 3D specialists.
