As part of the "Royal Sites and Reserves in Campania" project, an HGIS system was developed in order to analyze and digitize cultural heritage at risk. Starting with a territorial surveys, the surviving Royal Sites were cataloged, associating each building with historical, cartographic, photographic data, and updated metric and material-constructive data. This approach enables detailed cataloging and a better understanding of site conditions, often subject to multiple risks: abandonment, structural collapse, incongruous uses, natural disasters, and over-tourism. Each building was assigned a risk level, assessing specific factors to identify vulnerabilities and create a thematic risk map. This tool is essential for monitoring heritage over time and planning preservation practices. The active involvement of heritage authorities and local associations has helped outline collaborative strategies for conservation and enhancement. The paper illustrates the work carried out, the structure of the platform and the data collected through a case study, and outlines the possible updating scenarios, aimed at creating an operational and updatable tool for the planning, management and maintenance over time of the restoration and conservation processes of the landscape and historic buildings of Campania.

Abstract
As part of the "Royal Sites and Reserves in Campania" project, an HGIS system was developed in order to analyze and digitize cultural heritage at risk. Starting with a territorial surveys, the surviving Royal Sites were cataloged, associating each building with historical, cartographic, photographic data, and updated metric and material-constructive data. This approach enables detailed cataloging and a better understanding of site conditions, often subject to multiple risks: abandonment, structural collapse, incongruous uses, natural disasters, and over-tourism. Each building was assigned a risk level, assessing specific factors to identify vulnerabilities and create a thematic risk map. This tool is essential for monitoring heritage over time and planning preservation practices. The active involvement of heritage authorities and local associations has helped outline collaborative strategies for conservation and enhancement. The paper illustrates the work carried out, the structure of the platform and the data collected through a case study, and outlines the possible updating scenarios, aimed at creating an operational and updatable tool for the planning, management and maintenance over time of the restoration and conservation processes of the landscape and historic buildings of Campania.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
