Restoration of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris Embraces Digital Technology, Building Information Modeling
The organization responsible for the conservation and restoration of the iconic Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral recently announced a formal partnership with Autodesk. This collaboration brings together advanced design and construction solutions, including Building Information Modeling (BIM), which uses intelligent data and 3D geometric modeling to streamline the restoration process. By employing BIM, a comprehensive digital archive is being created to ensure resilience against future challenges and maintain the cathedral's historical integrity.
Embracing this innovative digital strategy allows for seamless cloud-based collaboration among all stakeholders involved. A shared data environment serves as a centralized hub where authorized parties can access the most current plans and information, fostering transparency and efficiency throughout the restoration efforts.
Prior to the tragic fire, detailed data collected using reality capture technologies enabled Autodesk to develop an accurate 3D BIM model representing the cathedral as it stood before the disaster. Following the fire, additional scans were utilized to generate further 3D models for comparison, aiding in planning the reconstruction meticulously.
Below are images showcasing various aspects of these 3D models, highlighting both macro views and intricate details:

Autodesk has also produced stunning 3D digital visualizations capturing the cathedral from multiple perspectives, including different lighting conditions, providing invaluable resources for the restoration team.
General Jean-Louis Georgelin, President of the public establishment overseeing the restoration, expressed his gratitude towards Autodesk: "I am deeply appreciative of Autodesk's contribution to the revival of Paris Notre-Dame Cathedral. Their support in applying state-of-the-art design and construction technologies via BIM is crucial for preparing the cathedral's reopening, welcoming back pilgrims and visitors alike."
Nicolas Mangon, Autodesk's Vice President of Business Strategy for Architecture, Engineering and Construction Design Solutions, echoed this sentiment: "It is an honor to be part of this significant restoration project. Since the devastating fire two years ago, we have offered financial aid and technological expertise through the French Heritage Foundation. Today’s announcement underscores our continued dedication to preserving such a remarkable architectural masterpiece."
This partnership not only highlights the power of modern technology but also emphasizes global cooperation in safeguarding humanity’s cultural heritage.
