Procesos de clasificación supervisados como herramienta de monitoreo del patrimonio cultural edificado

The Historic Center of Santa Ana de los Ríos de Cuenca was incorporated in 1999 to the UNESCTO World Heritage List. However, the absence of conservation policies has led to the lost of the heritage values on which the listing criteria of Cuenca are based. In this respect, this research proposes to use a supervised classification method known as Support Vector Machines (SVM) to determine heritage elements that need to be monitored at a territorial scale. The results have shown a real possibility to control different elements accurately with a low computational load.
