- Abstract:
- The systematic study of Cistercian monastic complexes focuses on the Fossanova Abbey, presenting a unique challenge in Italian architecture. The lack of homogeneous and reliable documentation on the morphometric consistency of these structures, expressed through two-dimensional and three-dimensional models, has limited the completeness of historical-critical studies. By analyzing the floor plans and graphic materials, a significant discrepancy has been found compared to the actual structures, with regularization of axes and alignments that disregard vertical errors and offsets. To address this gap, an architectural survey methodology has been adopted, combining digital photogrammetry, 3D laser scanning, and other advanced technologies. This multidisciplinary approach enables the creation of reliable and coherent digital models that capture the formal, geometric, and chromatic aspects of the abbey, documenting diachronic changes and temporal stratification.
