Abstract
The mitigation of seismic vulnerability related to both cultural and historical buildings is a very important issue
especially when considering monumental heritages located on seismic areas, since it allows defining the seismic
risk of selected structures. Within such a framework, Non Destructive Testing (NDT) techniques and proximal
remotely sensed tools play a key role for providing the damage detection and the conservation status evaluation
of heritages, especially in response to seismic hazards. Based on this rationale, the proposed study aims at
providing a methodology relevant to the integrated use of Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS), Infrared Thermal
Camera (IR-TC) and Real Aperture Radar (RAR) sensors for both the structural health monitoring and the
seismic risk mitigation of monumental heritages. Some preliminary results, gathered for the Brettii & Enotri
Museum in Cosenza and the San Nicola Church in Briatico, are properly described to show the benefits of both
the proposed approach and the powerful capabilities of proximal remote sensing tools to support classical
measurement techniques for the monumental heritages monitoring in a seismic area. Furthermore, some future
perspectives are summarized in order to integrate and improve the results of the structural analyses.
