An example from the group of “Images” is given on
Fig. 3, where an old drawing of the Castle was
scanned and inserted into the system.
On Fig. 4 we have a graphical output in vector form,
selected from the group of “Measurements”. It is a
photogrammetric restitution of one of the three Gates
of the Castle (excecuted by the Laboratory of
Photogrammetry of NTU of Athens and completed a
short time ago).
An example of an output of combined information is
shown on Fig. 5. It has been produced by the system
using:
-the hight information of the state map of a scale
1:5000
-the planimetry from an archaeological survey of the
Castle, performed in 1931 at a scale 1:1000 and
-the positions of the wall where interventions were
made between 1200-1821 (information contained in
/Theodorou et al 1990/).

9. CONCLUSIONS
New technology gives more efficient tools for
studying, protecting and managing our monuments.
Hardware and software demands for this application
are becoming more common, easy to operate and
affordable.
The expected benefit from the use of these systems
is great, especially for a country which has such a
wealth of monuments but a low organisational level
and thus has a tremendous task to undertake. The
state has the means to introduce such systems. Thus
the next important step is its decision to initiate and
fuhd a complete system such as the one envisaged in
this paper.
