The analysis based on the visualization of 3D digital models represents nowadays a possible way for Cultural Heritage valorization, suitable to be aimed at different categories of users, ranging from experts to simple tourists. The definition of a digital 3D representation of a Cultural Heritage monument deals with two crucial aspects: on one hand the integration between 3D survey and historical data, on the other the correct representation of the relative historical phases that can improve the comprehension of the artifact evolution by a diachronic model. For this reason the aim of this article is the definition of an integrated methodology that starts from an high-resolution digital survey of the remains of an ancient building and develops a coherent virtual reconstruction from different historical sources, suggesting a scalable method suitable to be reused for generating a 4D model of the artifact (3D in space, 1D in time). This approach has been experimented on the Basilica of San Giovanni in Conca in Milan, a very significant example for its complex historic evolution that combines evident historic values with an invisible presence inside the city.

Abstract
The analysis based on the visualization of 3D digital models represents nowadays a possible way for Cultural Heritage valorization, suitable to be aimed at different categories of users, ranging from experts to simple tourists. The definition of a digital 3D representation of a Cultural Heritage monument deals with two crucial aspects: on one hand the integration between 3D survey and historical data, on the other the correct representation of the relative historical phases that can improve the comprehension of the artifact evolution by a diachronic model. For this reason the aim of this article is the definition of an integrated methodology that starts from an high-resolution digital survey of the remains of an ancient building and develops a coherent virtual reconstruction from different historical sources, suggesting a scalable method suitable to be reused for generating a 4D model of the artifact (3D in space, 1D in time). This approach has been experimented on the Basilica of San Giovanni in Conca in Milan, a very significant example for its complex historic evolution that combines evident historic values with an invisible presence inside the city.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
