eXplora is a cultural project aimed at promoting transversal interaction opportunities, and at investigating the different aspects related to the disciplines of Representation and Drawing, with a focus on extended reality (XR). The project aims in particular to contribute to the knowledge of cultural heritage, in particular of architectural projects that have never been built, destroyed or of limited accessibility, facilitating the sharing of digital reconstructions, surveys and models.

By involving researchers and scholars from different disciplines, eXplora aims to create a dynamic environment conducive to the exploration and understanding of representation methodologies in their broader context. The project aims to contribute to the advancement of the state of the art of the discipline, promoting interdisciplinary collaborations and facilitating the exchange of ideas between researchers.

With the aim of participating in the development of the sector and making research results easily accessible, eXplora will organize conferences, workshops and periodic initiatives. These events will provide a platform for participants to present their work and exchange knowledge, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration and internationalization.
