Artificial Intelligence, 3D Modeling and BIM: Methodological Evolutions

The Editorial Board invites scholars, researchers, and professionals to contribute to a special issue dedicated to the evolution of methodologies and practices in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, 3D Modeling, and BIM. In recent years, the convergence of information technologies, advanced instrumental surveys, and immersive visualization systems has opened new perspectives for the documentation, analysis, and enhancement of archaeological heritage. This issue aims to explore innovative approaches and critical reflections that highlight both theoretical implications and operational applications.

The Editorial Board invites scholars, researchers, and professionals to contribute to an issue dedicated to the evolution of methodologies, tools, and practices in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, 3D Modeling, BIM, and Digital Twin, with a particular focus on applications aimed at the knowledge, representation, management, and enhancement of architecture and built heritage.

The issue intends to gather theoretical, methodological, and applied contributions capable of critically investigating the relationship between digital innovation and the disciplines of design, surveying, and representation. Research addressing the integration between instrumental acquisition, three-dimensional modeling, information systems, BIM and HBIM procedures, Artificial Intelligence algorithms, and advanced digital environments will be of particular interest.

The call welcomes contributions relating both to the development of new methods and to experimentation on case studies, with a specific focus on the themes of digital documentation, Scan-to-BIM, parametric and semantic modeling, automated classification and segmentation, interoperability, data management, simulation, and immersive and interactive systems.

The goal is to promote an interdisciplinary discussion on ongoing transformations in the processes of understanding and representing the built environment, highlighting the potential, limits, critical issues, and prospects arising from the integration between architectural culture and emerging digital technologies.
