Abstract
The building materials of cultural heritage monuments are subjected to continuous degradation throughout the years, mainly due to their exposure to harsh and unexpected weather phenomena related to the climate change. The specific climatic conditions at their vicinity, especially when there are local peculiarities such as onshore breeze, are of crucial importance for studying the deterioration rate and the identification of proper mitigation actions. Generalized models that are based on climate data can provide an insight on the deterioration but fail to offer a deeper understanding of this phenomenon. To this end, in the context of the EU-funded Hyperion project a distributed smart sensor network will be deployed at the cultural heritage monuments in four study areas as the solution to this problem. The platform includes smart IoT devices designed to provide environmental measurements close to monuments, a middleware to facilitate the communication and a visualization platform where the collected information is presented.
