About

Filiberto Chiabrando is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of digital documentation technologies, cultural heritage surveying, and innovative geomatics applications. His scholarship focuses on developing and testing cutting-edge methodologies for recording and analyzing built environments, archaeological sites, and historic landscapes, with a particular emphasis on integrating robotic systems, close-range photogrammetry, and autonomous 3D mapping into heritage documentation workflows. Among his notable contributions is the 4DILAN project, which explores the fourth dimension — time — in landscape and artifact analysis, pushing the boundaries of how digital technologies can be applied to understand environmental and architectural heritage. His earlier work on nadiral close-range imaging for archaeological excavations demonstrated practical, non-invasive approaches to rapid site documentation, earning recognition within the archaeological survey community. More recently, Chiabrando has turned his attention to robotics platforms such as the Leica BLK ARC and Boston Dynamics' Spot, investigating their potential for autonomous 3D heritage mapping. With citations accumulating across interdisciplinary audiences in architecture, engineering, and archaeology, his research continues to shape how professionals approach precision surveying in complex cultural heritage contexts, making advanced digital tools more accessible and operationally effective.
