Abstract: Old housing areas, such as the historic centres of most European cities, are objects of architectural or cultural interest, since they include a large number of historic buildings and monuments dating from various historic periods. Such monuments together with their access and surrounding areas are often a unified complex, whose spatial design and operation can be fully recorded and documented by means of a 3D Geographical Information System. The representation of all historic multiple impact and the various phases through years starting from the more recent up to the most old objects can be easily achieved by recording the current condition of the buildings and other historic monuments, the topography and planning characteristics of the surrounding area, and by combining these data with a variety of quality information, such as images, videos, old maps and city plans and other available data.
Keywords: Historic districts, Historic sites, Old city centre, Landscape architecture and New technologies, Heritage architecture and historical aspects, 3D GIS, Spatial Information System.
