The Calatravo Castle of Alcaudete, located in the province of Jaén, is a historical treasure that has endured through the centuries. Built in the 13th century, this impressive castle has witnessed countless events and withstood the test of time, becoming a symbol of the rich history and culture of the region.
Fisotec Revolutionizes Conservation with BIM Modeling
In today’s digital age, technology plays a fundamental role in preserving and restoring our cultural heritage. In this context, Fisotec, a leading company in laser scanning and Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies, has undertaken a series of revolutionary actions at the Calatravo Castle.
Fisotec’s actions have broad and visionary objectives. Their main focus is to create a 3D recreation of the Calatravo Castle through BIM modeling using Leica’s BLK2GO laser scanning technology. This recreation not only provides a realistic and detailed view of the structure but also serves as a foundation for planning future rehabilitation or improvements in specific areas of the castle.
Beyond rehabilitation planning, BIM modeling enables unprecedented precision in maintenance tasks. Every corner and dependency of the castle is geometrically represented, facilitating the early detection of potential deterioration and the timely implementation of corrective measures.
The impact of these actions goes beyond conservation and restoration. Thanks to BIM modeling, it’s possible to organize events within the castle’s premises with a precise understanding of its spatial layout. Any activity, from historical exhibitions to cultural events, can be planned with greater efficiency and attention to detail.
Furthermore, continuous monitoring of the castle becomes more efficient with BIM technology. Any changes or deterioration that occur over time can be monitored and analyzed with reference to the 3D digital model, facilitating informed decision-making regarding conservation interventions.
Fisotec’s SMART Inventory: Cutting-Edge Technology Serving Heritage
Fisotec’s SMART inventoryis the cornerstone of these actions. By employing laser scanning technology, precise data is captured in the form of point clouds, which are then processed to create 3D digital models. This digital twin technique is not limited to structures like the Calatravo Castle; it also encompasses a wide range of buildings and urban environments.
From capturing homes to large-scale projects like dams and roads, Fisotec possesses specialized equipment that ensures accuracy and quality in every scan. This technology not only preserves heritage but also lays the foundation for a more conscious and connected future intertwined with our history.
