Abstract
The authentication and sustainability of cultural heritage monuments are of great importance due to their uniqueness. Recent accidents and natural disasters have taught us that all monuments, even the most protected such as the cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris, can be destroyed by an unexpected event. For these reasons, it is of paramount importance the creation of a monument database containing fusion data not only of the accurate 3D model and precise representation of the artifacts/monuments but also about the condition and procedures of restoration and preservation and the structural health of the antiquities by means of quantitative non-destructive techniques, such as Infrared Thermography. The 3D model of a monument would guarantee the accurate restoration of the monument in case of a catastrophic disaster, while the 3D model of an artifact together with the entire related metadata would provide a digital identity, therefore guaranteeing the sustainability of the item. Also, in case of a movable artifact, it will be a useful tool towards the validation / authentication of the artifact in case it is damaged or missing.
