The sharing of information during emergencies due to natural disasters is essential to ensure timeliness in safeguarding the cultural heritage. Carta del Rischio, a geographic information system developed by ISCR, has been engineered in the 1990's to record data on the historic buildings vulnerability and plan any preventive works. During the seismic emergency declared in 2016 in a wide territory among Latium, Abruzzo and Marche and still ongoing, it was also used to manage data about recovery, transfer and intervention on the artworks removed from the hit areas. Its use helps to clarify the origin of the goods taken from the ruins over time and to avoid accidental scattering; it also allows the monitoring of artefacts stored in warehouses and of conservation activities within the laboratories.
