Description
Summary:<p>Spain is a country with a wide tourist heritage. All the public institutions should be interested in preserving and conserving it in good conditions year after year. New digital technologies may allow making a thorough and reliable inventory of all of our goods so as to show them whether with static or in movement images in order to promote cultural tourism.</p> <p>The methodology used to accomplish this task is based on reverse engineering, tool that allows us to know details of its shape, texture, construction details and geo-referenced positioning. Inverse engineering will help us to create a digital catalogue with all the formal characteristics of the objects and tourist spaces. It will be possible then to reproduce them in a three dimensional way for different uses.</p> <p>Reverse engineering is also an excellent tool for innovation and a teaching strategy to acquire the skills required for design and innovation in the training of engineers.</p>
