Simulating Historical Flows And Connection. The Artistic Transfer During The 15th To 16th Century In The Iberian Peninsula.

The Late Gothic period (fourteenth-sixteenth century) was a phase of transition in Europe – with social, political, economic and cultural changes. Within this framework, Europe was the scene of a significant amount of mobility of artists that in some way materialised the production of architecture without borders: a "Pan-European style" (García Cuetos, 2011) capable of reproducing and adapting models in different places. This paper will present the project ArTNet “Analysing artistic transfer network. A social and spatiotemporal study of Late Gothic architectural production in the Iberian Peninsula” which was designed to identify, record and analyse artistic transfer network transcending the building scale to better understand the process of Late Gothic architecture production in the Iberian Peninsula. An integral view bringing together several factors is being studied by multiscale models, combining HGIS and Graph model, and analysis (such as SNA, spatial statistics, map visualisation and spatiotemporal analysis)

Achieving the state of research pertaining to GIS applications for cultural heritage by a systematic literature review

During the last decade, we have witnessed an increased interest in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), including the so-called “Historical GIS”, 3D GIS heritage and its subcategory of “SDI for cultural heritage”. Specific literature reviews, gathering and analysing the scientific production for Culture Heritage and GIS based research questions, are currently lacking. Therefore, the overall goal of this article is to provide an objective summary of the current state -of-the-art concerning how GIS has been used and what methods and analysis have been applied in the field of cultural heritage. In this sense, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of the literature on the application of GIS in cultural heritage is carried out. To do so, the WOS and Scopus databases were considered. The results show that the dominant application of GIS is in the realisation of inventory and cataloguing of archaeological and architectural heritage. As a result of the quantitative analysis, we also verify the principal sources in which most studies have been published, highlighting the "ISPRS Archives" with 14 publications, the "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" with 9, and "Proceedings of Digital Heritage" with 6 publications. These data show that the sources that most publis h mainly belong to the field of IT and Computer Science. In addition, the SLR shows that in the last three years there has been a greater tendency to use GIS to solve more specific problems of heritage through its use in conjunction with other tools such as BIM and photogrammetrySpain’s Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness HAR2016–78113-R HAR2016–76371-

La producción del sistema ferroviario. Hacia una IDE histórica del patrimonio ferroviario de Andalucía

The railway process (1854-1940) in Andalucia contributed to the formation of a new territorial structure. The railway, built and used, was also a means of production: business networks, flows of raw materials and people, energy technologies that shaped the land and also were shaped by it. In this sense, the railroad, produced and producer of various changes, cannot be understood without its productive forces, including knowledge and technology, the working class, the superstructure of society, the State and nether can't be separated from nature, where the topography and hydrology played important role. These factors are combined, juxtaposed, are interspersed, engage and sometimes collide, creating what might be called the " rail rhizome", a hyper complex space, intervened and shaped by a diversity of actors.This paper presents a new interpretation of the Andalucia railway heritage through the application of a Geographic Information System (GIS), which based on the historical creation of a spatial data infrastructure (SDI) of railways in Andalucia, open and expands its spatiotemporal vision.El proceso ferroviario (1854-1940) en Andalucía contribuyó a la formación de una nueva estructura territorial. El ferrocarril, construido y utilizado, fue también un medio de producción: redes de negocios, flujos de materias primas y personas, energías, tecnologías que configuraron el territorio y fueron configurados por él. En este sentido, el ferrocarril, producido y productor de diversos cambios, no puede ser entendido sin sus fuerzas productivas, incluyendo el conocimiento y la técnica, la clase trabajadora, las superestructuras de la sociedad, el Estado, ni puede ser separado de la naturaleza, en el cual la orografía y la hidrología jugaron importante papel. Estos factores, se combinan, se yuxtaponen, se intercalan, se compenetran y a veces se colisionan, creando lo que podríamos llamar de "rizoma ferroviario", un espacio hipercomplejo, intervenido y conformado por una gran diversidad de actores. Este trabajo presenta una nueva interpretación del patrimonio ferroviario andaluz a partir de la aplicación de un Sistema de Información Geográfica (SIG), el cual partiendo de la creación de una Infraestructura de Datos Espaciales (IDE) histórica del ferrocarril en Andalucía, amplia y expande su visión espacio-temporal.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad HAR2012-3457

Historical SDI, thematic maps and analysis of a complex network of medieval towers (13th-15th century) in the moorish strip

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XLII-4, 2018 ISPRS TC IV Mid-term Symposium “3D Spatial Information Science – The Engine of Change”, 1–5 October 2018, Delft, The NetherlandsThis work is part of an investigation into the use of GIS for the documentation and comprehension of medieval architectural heritage in the ancient Kingdom of Seville. The research was done in the framework of the project “Sustainable guardianship of cultural heritage through digital BIM and GIS models: contribution to knowledge and social innovation”, an interdisciplinary project focused on the applications of information technology in architectural heritage in Spain. The study case of this paper is located in the Guadalquivir valley during the period between 13th and 15th centuries. It concerns the Moorish Strip site, fortified by the Christian Kingdom of Castile with the aim of creating a barrier with the Moorish Kingdom. Its deteriorated state has led us to create a historical and spatial database in order to contribute to its conservation management plan. Apart from the historical documentation research and the data gathering, intensive fieldwork was also done to collect information about the buildings. In this paper we present a Historical SDI to investigate the hypothesis that the spatial patterns of the Moorish Band obey rules of “inter-visibility” control. Some analysis has been done on the site scale, such as: i) a thematic map of building material; ii) a spatiotemporal analysis; iii) the density of the distribution of towers over the territory; iv) a simulation of the territory visibility from the towers; v) the inter-visibility among towers; iv) thematic maps using attribute values. These analyses permitted us to highlight the need to create a preservation plan that should consider the network visibility system as an important value for heritage interpretation and knowledge.Spain’s Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness HAR2016–78113-

Análisis comparativo de ciudades históricas mediante sintaxis espacial. Los casos de Sevilla y Lisboa

This paper presents a comparative analysis by applying space syntax techniques at two historic cities that during the 16th and 17th centuries were, among others, the main centres of the Iberian Peninsula: Lisbon and Seville. The main methodological phases in the present study were: 1) acquisition and digitalization of historical data; geo-processing of the data sources; 2) preparation of the axial map model; 3) generation of the axial map; 4) generation of the segment map; 5) study and statistical analysis of the parameters; 6) visualization and interpretation of the maps. The application of the analysis based on segment maps has allowed the calculation of variables more related to accessibility, movement and urban activity: Normalized Angular Choice (NACH) and Normalized Angular Integration (NAIN). This paper also shows that the computational model provides an effective approach to perform comparative studies of historical cities.Este trabajo presenta un análisis comparativo aplicando técnicas de la sintaxis espacial en dos ciudades históricas que durante los siglos XVI y XVII fueron, entre otras, los principales núcleos de la península ibérica: Lisboa y Sevilla. Las principales fases metodológicas del trabajo fueron: 1) adquisición y digitalización de datos históricos; geo-procesamiento de las fuentes de datos; 2) preparación del modelo de mapa axial; 3) generación del mapa axial; 4) generación del mapa de segmentos; 5) estudio y análisis de los parámetros; 6) visualización e interpretación de los mapas. La aplicación de los análisis a partir de mapas de segmentos ha permitido el cálculo de variables más relacionadas con la accesibilidad, movimiento y actividad urbana: la elección angular normalizada (NACH) y la integración angular normalizada (NAIN). Este artículo demuestra que el modelo computacional proporciona un enfoque eficaz para realizar estudios comparativos de ciudades históricas

Modelos digitales de información-sig y grafos- aplicados en el patrimonio: la fábrica edilicia en el antiguo reino de Sevilla en el tránsito a la edad moderna.

La presente tesis doctoral aborda la aplicación de dos Modelos Digitales de Información, mediante las tecnologías deSIG y Grafos, en el ámbito patrimonial, y lo hace desde un proceso científico y transversal que incorpora la complejidad de integrar distintos datos patrimoniales contemplando su escala territorial. En este sentido, tiene especial importancia debido a los siguientes factores: la creación de una base de datos susceptible de futura ampliación, uso y análisis; su incidencia sobre el abordaje del patrimonio a distintas escalas; su propuesta para la protección, conservación e interrelación de la información patrimonial y el desarrollo y puesta en marcha de una metodología que permite nuevos conocimientos y sinergias interdisciplinares bien como su reutilización en otros contextos patrimoniales. El trabajo contempla un dilatado repaso de las tecnologías de la información en él aplicadas y de iniciativas, anteriores y en curso, relativas a la aplicación de estas en la esfera patrimonial e histórica. Asimismo, establece una experiencia piloto, la cual tiene como objeto de estudio de la producción de la arquitectura del antiguo Reino de Sevilla durante el tránsito de la Edad Moderna que contempla las redes espacio-temporales generadas por las principales fábricas edilicias, con especial protagonismo de los profesionales y artistas implicados, considerando el contexto socio-económico, político, científico-técnico y cultural. Con ello se pretende comprender esta organización espacial, entendida como un sistema dinámico y no lineal. Y para finalizar, se presentan una serie de conclusiones y futuras líneas de investigación y proyectos, algunos que ya están en proceso de desarrollo y otros, de ideación.Premio Extraordinario de Doctorado U

Exchange Communication Point Modeling in the context of the Enterprise Architecture

It is important to understand the performance and operation of an Internet Exchange Point to improve the management, and to reduce the cost associated with implementation and the information shared. Enterprise Architecture supports the design of systems, according to the business domain processes, network infrastructure and all the different applications running. Existing Enterprise Architecture modelling languages only provide a general concept of a network and do not represent specific information such as the protocols used, the internet protocols or the network addresses used for sharing information. This paper proposes a set of new concepts and attributes to the technology layer of reference language (ArchiMate) to enhance the representation and management of the network infrastructure. The ArchiMate language extensions are then used in modelling two Case Studies of Internet Exchange Point implementation in the Portuguese Public Administration. It was possible to compute which services will have impact in case of failure

El patrimonio industrial agroalimentario en Andalucía: diagnóstico y directrices para su identificación y documentación

At the beginning of the Contemporary Age, Andalusia presents a greater economic relevance of its agricultural sector both in comparison with the national and European territory. This agrarian and rural characteristic will characterize the Andalusian territory until the end of the twentieth century, when it takes second place in its economic structure. This process significantly affected the evolution of the Andalusian territory, affecting aspects related to its morphology and physical structure, as well as the gradual incorporation of mechanization and technologies, changes in the business model and its labor relations, and the new logistic dynamics created. In this paper we focus our attention on the heritage inherited from this process and present a diagnosis of the records of the Andalusian agro-alimentary industrial heritage currently documented in the Digital Guide of the Andalusian Institute of Historical Heritage (hereinafter, IAPH). The general objective is to provide a qualitative and quantitative analysis to outline lines of action for further documentation and study. To this end, we have analyzed a total of 542 property records, covering 28 typologies and 7 activities. The methodology was developed in 6 stages: M1. Gathering and overview of the actions previously carried out in the framework of the documentation of the industrial heritage of Andalusia (Background); M2. Definition of the search criteria and selection of the sample; M3. Definition of criteria and parameters for quantitative and qualitative analysis; M4. Collection and analysis of the records; M5. Visualization of the analyses using graphs; M6. Interpretation of the results and proposal of actions. In the analyses carried out we have been able to detect differences in the number of records between provinces (greater number in Malaga, followed by Seville, Cordoba, Cadiz and Almeria) and between typologies and activities (greater number in the typologies of oil mills and hydraulic mills and in the activities of olive cultivation) Likewise, we have been able to draw up a qualitative diagnosis and observe that, of the 542 records analyzed, only 174 present complete information on the object, the province of Malaga being the one with the greatest deficiency in this aspect. However, when we analyze the graphic documentation (photography) collected in the Digital Guide, the province of Malaga is the best positioned. Thus, the results of the diagnosis show a series of statistical and graphic data that, together with the diagnosis of the other sectors of industrial heritage, will provide the basis for a more comprehensive and effective documentation and research strategy
