Advances in information and communication technologies unveil unprecedented opportunities in the documentation and analysis of architectural and urban assets. Nevertheless, the (over–)abundance of data does not always seem sufficient for a thorough understanding. This contribution summarizes three connected research experiences that produced apps and prototypes exploiting geospatial da-tabases, AI for image recognition, and AR based on model tracking, applied to built heritage contexts. The three cases contribute to a reflection on the interpretation of the form of the built environment as a means to produce shared knowledge and operational outcomes.
