Abstract

According to the recommendations of international charters and documents—UNESCO, ICOMOS, Council of Europe, etc.—, the aim of the chapter is to present the concept of conservation and related matters. It is a general notion, a multifaceted and complex interdisciplinary process based on critical problems of knowledge, understanding, interpretation, presentation, sustainability, participation, and management. It reflects the evolution and complexification of the idea of heritage, where open-ended practices of involvement are aspects that are ever more important. In this context, the diffusion of digital technologies and methodologies, with the opportunities offered by ICT, favors the development of new advanced approaches for cultural heritage conservation.
