Space technology can make an important contribution to the discovery and maintenance of World Heritage Sites. Worldwide, our cultural heritage is endangered by many factors, both natural and artificial.
Earth Observation data elaborated with cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning can provide useful insights in the form of change maps, highlighting the changes over time and addressing actions in preserving critical areas at a global level.
The workshop is intended to show some brilliant successful cases of outcomes from Earth Observation and to discuss opportunities, trends, and challenges in the field of discovering and preserving cultural heritage from space.
