The advanced Information and Communication Technologies, combined with the development of applications based on artificial intelligence, open new possibilities to investigate CH in depth. Through GRID computing it is possible to directly access distributed databases by web, creating a network of different archives. Instruments for Augmented Reality, modeling, simulation and virtual 3D reconstruction are useful both to predict the process of deterioration and to create innovative means to disseminate knowledge
