Kick-off event for the project Heritage Building Information Modeling (HBIM) as a documentation, planning and monitoring method for the elimination of harmful environmental influences using the example of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Worms Synagogue and conference on the topic: Heritage BIM in Monument Preservation - Innovative Strategies for Preservation and Monitoring
LUX - Pavillon der Hochschule Mainz, Ludwigsstrasse 2, 55116 Mainz March 27/28, 2025
- How do climate change and environmental influences affect built cultural heritage?
- How can the BIM (Building Information Modeling) planning method contribute to the recording, maintenance planning and monitoring of cultural monuments?
- How can heritage conservation and world heritage-specific requirements be recorded in the digital model and made usable in the long term?
- How can interdisciplinary data from different sources (soil, construction, archaeology, topography) be integrated in order to develop a holistic conservation methodology?
Organized by AI MAINZ - Institute of Architecture at Mainz University of Applied Sciences in cooperation with the Directorate of State Monument Conservation and the World Heritage Secretariat at the General Directorate for Cultural Heritage Rhineland-Palatinate (GDKE), ICOMOS Germany and CIPA Heritage Documentation.
The event in Mainz will provide insights into the exciting topics from current research projects and initiatives around Heritage BIM (HBIM) from Germany and abroad in order to ensure a basis for the development of efficient information management for the sustainable preservation of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
