Nowadays due to the active step of urbanisation and rapid development of industry, the contamination of atmospheric air is one of the key aspects of environmental mechanics. Polluted air deteriorates the appearance of historical buildings and architectural monuments. With the help of modern methods, aimed at preservation of cultural heritage objects, it is possible to evaluate the impact of dusty air on the appearance of historical buildings in order to save them, because it is a demonstration of architectural and design features of various temporary periods.

Subject of study: issue of redevelopment of industrial zones that have lost its purpose, which have a huge potential for renovation in the current conditions of development of a modern metropolis. Based on the example of a housing complex projected on the territory of the «Krasny Vyborzhets» factory the article describes approaches to the renovation of historical buildings located on the territory of the future residential com-plex, which cannot be demolished due to town planning regulations. Objectives: the formation of the hypotheses of redevelopment of cultural her-itage objects belonging to the residential complex being designed on the territory of the plant “Krasny Vyborzhets”. Materials and methods: mapping methods, SWOT analysis, world experience of redevelopment were used. Results: the main direction of redevelopment was chosen to create a cultural and business center “Rosenkrantz” with a modern open public space, which is based on the combination of three historical eras. Conclusions: this type of redevelopment will increase the security of this area, the attractiveness of the residential complex for future costumers of apartments and also will create a public space for leisure activities for local residents and their children.

Currently, there is a rapid development in the techniques of the automated image based modelling (IBM), especially in advanced structure-from-motion (SFM) and dense image matching methods, and camera technology. One possibility is to use video imaging to create 3D reality based models of cultural heritage architectures and monuments. Practically, video imaging is much easier to apply when compared to still image shooting in IBM techniques because the latter needs a thorough planning and proficiency. However, one is faced with mainly three problems when video image sequences are used for highly detailed modelling and dimensional survey of cultural heritage objects. These problems are: the low resolution of video images, the need to process a large number of short baseline video images and blur effects due to camera shake on a significant number of images. <br><br> In this research, the feasibility of using video images for efficient 3D modelling is investigated. A method is developed to find the minimal significant number of video images in terms of object coverage and blur effect. This reduction in video images is convenient to decrease the processing time and to create a reliable textured 3D model compared with models produced by still imaging. <br><br> Two experiments for modelling a building and a monument are tested using a video image resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. Internal and external validations of the produced models are applied to find out the final predicted accuracy and the model level of details. Related to the object complexity and video imaging resolution, the tests show an achievable average accuracy between 1 – 5 cm when using video imaging, which is suitable for visualization, virtual museums and low detailed documentation.

Cultural heritage objects constitute a very diverse environment, inhabited by various bacteria and fungi. The impact of these microorganisms on the degradation of artworks is undeniable, but at the same time, some of them may be applied for the efficient biotreatment of cultural heritage assets. Interventions with microorganisms have been proven to be useful in restoration of artworks, when classical chemical and mechanical methods fail or produce poor or short-term effects. The path to understanding the impact of microbes on historical objects relies mostly on multidisciplinary approaches, combining novel meta-omic technologies with classical cultivation experiments, and physico-chemical characterization of artworks. In particular, the development of metabolomic- and metatranscriptomic-based analyses associated with metagenomic studies may significantly increase our understanding of the microbial processes occurring on different materials and under various environmental conditions. Moreover, the progress in environmental microbiology and biotechnology may enable more effective application of microorganisms in the biotreatment of historical objects, creating an alternative to highly invasive chemical and mechanical methods.

The aim of this paper is to analyze issues related to identifying modern ways of materializing and further preserving of the memory of cultural heritage objects under the risk of destruction. Methodology. As a methodological basis the author of this study uses principles and methods of the culturological approach to analyze the norms of national legislation in the field of preserving cultural heritage, scientific works of leading specialists in this sphere and also practical aspects of the state financing and introducing activities for the protection of the immovable objects of cultural heritage. Results. The paper shows that development of the latest technologies, in particular, 3D-scanning, gives ample opportunities for fixing a detailed three-dimensional projection of any object (both movable and non-movable) in the state it is when scanned, given the damage, the reality/inevitability of the threat of destruction and the reality of prospects for future restoration. Novelty. The author argued that in the absence of sufficient funding, it is worth looking for alternative, in terms of content and cost, ways of preserving, if not a real object, at least its credible virtual projection for future generations. It has been determined that the important role played by the innovative initiatives of non-indifferent civic activists and their associations implemented mainly within the Internet with the active use of its possibilities should not be ignored.
