Green Cluster Joint Dissemination Webinar / From Heritage Data to Heritage Intelligence.

How can digital technologies help safeguard cultural heritage against the growing impacts of climate change, environmental degradation and human activity? This webinar brought together four Horizon Europe projects—ARGUS, iPhotoCult, NERITES and ChemiNova—to present their latest research and early results in the fields of cultural heritage monitoring, risk assessment and preventive preservation. The session explored how advanced technologies, including remote sensing, smart sensors, artificial intelligence, digital twins, geospatial analysis and data-driven decision-support tools, are transforming the way cultural heritage is monitored, understood and protected. Speakers shared innovative methodologies being tested across a wide range of heritage sites, demonstrating how these projects are contributing to more resilient, sustainable and proactive conservation strategies. Bringing together researchers, heritage professionals, technology developers and cultural institutions, the webinar highlighted common challenges, emerging solutions and opportunities for collaboration across Europe. Particular attention was given to the transition from collecting heritage data to generating actionable heritage intelligence that supports informed decision-making and long-term preservation. Watch the recording to discover how European research is helping shape the future of cultural heritage protection through innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration and evidence-based approaches.
