The seismic risk analysis at different scales and the use of modern data acquisition processes are of fundamental importance to define targeted interventions at different scales, from the urban to the single building levels. Yet, integrated digital-based methodologies and tools to assess multi-scale risk, damage scenarios and the impact of interventions are still missing. The aim of this paper is to present the initial stage of the development of an open-source computational web-based platform, "GENESIS", designed to support the effective management and conscious use of built cultural heritage by prioritizing cost-effective interventions and wise allocation of resources for long-term heritage protection. To this purpose, GENESIS includes informed multi-scale risk analysis combined with energy efficiency upgrades of the historic built environment, suggesting interventions to address not only structural rehabilitation but also to reduce energy consumption while respecting the cultural value of heritage assets. Input data are processed at different levels of increasing accuracy, enabling analysis from the territorial/urban level (historic centre) to the individual building level. Though the case studies will focus on towns in Southern Italy in their current condition state, the platform is applicable to any historic centre, and it is updatable over time and space.

Abstract
The seismic risk analysis at different scales and the use of modern data acquisition processes are of fundamental importance to define targeted interventions at different scales, from the urban to the single building levels. Yet, integrated digital-based methodologies and tools to assess multi-scale risk, damage scenarios and the impact of interventions are still missing. The aim of this paper is to present the initial stage of the development of an open-source computational web-based platform, "GENESIS", designed to support the effective management and conscious use of built cultural heritage by prioritizing cost-effective interventions and wise allocation of resources for long-term heritage protection. To this purpose, GENESIS includes informed multi-scale risk analysis combined with energy efficiency upgrades of the historic built environment, suggesting interventions to address not only structural rehabilitation but also to reduce energy consumption while respecting the cultural value of heritage assets. Input data are processed at different levels of increasing accuracy, enabling analysis from the territorial/urban level (historic centre) to the individual building level. Though the case studies will focus on towns in Southern Italy in their current condition state, the platform is applicable to any historic centre, and it is updatable over time and space.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
