Description:
Attention to the condition assessment and conservation of cultural heritage is increasing
due to growing sensitivity to the preservation of the built and natural environment and awareness
of the risks associated with natural hazards. In this context, a comprehensive approach to the
conservation and valorization of cultural heritage requires the combined action of different skills to
achieve reliable assessment of the conditions of valuable assets and sites based on qualitative and
quantitative indicators. This paper explores the issues of conservation and sustainable management
of archaeological sites, considering humanistic and technical aspects. It reviews the current rules and
practices concerning the maintenance and administration of archaeological heritage and outlines the
implementation of a novel procedure, based on low-cost tools, to assess and describe the current
condition of archaeological assets. Specific attention is paid to the interaction between experts
and researchers operating in both humanistic and technical fields and to the knowledge and data
contribution available on modern web-based platforms to implement reliable and low-cost data
acquisition for the development of worthwhile plans for the conservation and enhancement of
cultural heritage. The Samnite complex of Pietrabbondante, Molise, South Italy, is employed to apply
and check the proposed tools in the real world
