- Abstract
- HBIM represents one of the new frontiers in the digitalization process applied to archaeological sites. This paper illustrates a methodological procedure applied to the Palestra of Petronius, located in the archaeological site of Thuburbo Maius in Tunisia. The Palestra faces structural and restoration issues, which are investigated using an HBIM procedure. A key element in this context is the Common Data Environment (CDE), a collaborative platform designed as a centralized repository that collects, manages, and distributes all relevant information for a BIM process. CDE serves as a secure and dynamic environment where information can be uploaded, updated, and consulted in real time by all the researchers involved. Its role is essential to ensure that all participants in the process, including archaeologists, surveyors, restorers, and site managers, have access to up-to-date and reliable information, thereby reducing the risks of errors, misunderstandings, or data duplication. These data also enable the configuration of various outputs, ranging from site preservation to its valorization, confirming that digitalization is a crucial and fundamental tool for the management entities overseeing areas subject to this type of investigation.
