The volume brings together the results of the research and experimental activities conducted in Gdańsk within the EU-funded project PROMETHEUS – PROtocols for information Models librariEs Tested on HEritage of Upper Kama Sites (H2020 MSCA-RISE-2018 GA 821870). The study focused on the city’s fortified system, developing an urban cultural route that connects military architecture, defensive structures, historical traces and the transformations of the urban fabric.
Through the collaboration of lecturers, researchers and students from different disciplinary fields, the work proposed an integrated reading of historical and architectural heritage based on critical analysis, digital documentation, 3D modelling and information systems. PROMETHEUS addressed the complexities of applying BIM to heritage contexts, experimenting with digital and cognitive protocols for the representation, management and enhancement of a layered urban heritage within the European cultural framework.
