ABSTRACT
This contribution explores the underlying possibilities of interoperability between Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) methodologies, applied to the management of architectural heritage. This task can be understood as a complex reality, since it must incorporate the contextualization of a specific historical period, the temporal evolution it has undergone and the interpretation based on current parameters.
The paper includes some theoretical notes on the interoperability between both methodologies based on different studied publications with the aim of establishing a reference framework for further developments and conclusions. Additionally, the theoretical basis obtained in this research has been applied to the development of a real case study model. The chosen building for this purpose was the Old Church of Santa Lucía (Seville), now used as Centro Documental de Artes Escénicas de Andalucía (CDAEA). The results of this research show the need to continue working on the integration of both methodologies due to the numerous possibilities it offers.
