Integrated digital survey for the knowledge and enhancement of the IIWW heritage. The Natural Park Molentargius-Saline (Cagliari, Italy)

Abstract

The essay illustrates the choices aimed at building a digital database of military architectures made in Sardinia during the Second World War. It is an historical cultural heritage characterized by an interesting landscape value, composed by more than 1.500 artifacts positioned along the coast of the island and designed to protect the urban centers and areas of strategic interest. The small bunkers built adapting the models designed by the Italian and German Military Genius gave rise to an interesting repertoire. The need for mimesis of these 'sentries' has in fact required an adaptation to the places of the typological solutions indicated in the archive documents. A possible recovery and enhancement of this heritage necessarily passes through an activity of knowledge and cataloging entrusted to integrated digital survey methods.
