Description
Preserving and regenerating historic urban and rural places today calls for solutions that combine advanced technology with deep cultural understanding. Digital tools and smart cities offer new ways to protect and bring heritage environments to life, helping them stay relevant and resilient in a rapidly changing world. Technologies such as extended reality (XR), AI, digital twins, and blockchain are transforming how we record, interpret, and adapt heritage spaces. These approaches not only support accurate conservation but also encourage public participation, explore future scenarios, and promote creative reuse. By blending insights from architecture, urban data, and cultural and heritage studies, research shows how digital innovation can drive sustainable and meaningful change. Rather than viewing heritage as something fixed in the past, it becomes a living, evolving resource, open to new ideas, shared experiences, and inclusive futures across both cities and the countryside.| Period | 13 Jun 2025 |
