Abstract

The monitoring of Cultural Heritages is an operational issue that requires a multidisciplinary approach to provide their dynamic and sustainable surveying in response to climate changes and natural events. Within such a framework, an integrated system of proximal remotely-sensed tools is investigated for Cultural Heritage monitoring purposes in a seismic area. It consists of a Ground-Based Synthetic Aperture Radar (GBSAR), a GB Real Aperture Radar (RAR) and a Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS). Preliminary results, gathered over the Sant´Agostino Church in Cosenza city, allow demonstrating the benefits of the proposed approach for Cultural Heritages monitoring.
