HYPERION has accomplished a reliable quantification of climatic, hydrological and atmospheric stressors. Multiple data were used to estimate quantitative indicators for the potential impacts of CC on historic areas from the individual building to a regional level. Changes of both the average climate and the increase of the intensity and the frequency of extreme climatic/weather events were taken into account.
A platform for detailed and simplified modelling for the analysis of CH assets has been developed using sensors and numerical modelling. A Structural and Geotechnical (SG) simulator has been provided by incorporating open-access software packages for structural vulnerability assessment of CH assets subjected to different types of risks. A methodology for the conservation of heritage timber buildings has been proposed.
In addition, HYPERION has designed, developed, tested and evaluated a complete Holistic Resilience Assessment Platform, which aims to assist representatives of local authorities and cultural heritage managers in gaining a deeper understanding of the threats and risks facing tangible Cultural Heritage (CH) sites. By providing valuable insights, the platform enables more informed decision-making for a prompt and effective response, ultimately contributing to the sustainable preservation and revitalization of historical regions at risk.An enhanced visualization interface was generated supporting CH operators during maintenance as well as at all phases of a crisis management process (preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation).
A total of eight KERs were identified based on their degree of innovation, their exploitability, and their impact: i) Climate Models Downscaled Maps ii)Hygro-Thermal (HT) Simulator iii)Computer Vision-CV Detection & Monitoring Systems (airborne and ground based) iv)3D Representation Toolkit v)Middleware and Data Fusion (DF) services
vi)Social Participatory Mobile Application vii)HRAP, Visualization Environment and Decision Support System viii) HYPERION Integrated Solution. For each KER, an Exploitation Strategy Structure was constructed, including problem statement, alternative solutions and draft stakeholder and competitors analysis. The Dissemination and Communication Plan included a project website, various social media channels, collaboration and common activities with other EU projects, posters, leaflets, animation videos, newsletters, conference presentations, scientific publications , media articles and interviews , training and demo events, an annual magazine and a big final event.
