Fire holds deep significance across cultures, symbolizing both creation and destruction. Its dual nature is reflected in historical contexts, like Prometheus's gift of fire in Greek mythology and the divine punishments in biblical tales. The devastating fire at Notre-Dame Cathedral in 2019 spurred collective action for restoration, leading to groundbreaking technological innovations. Autodesk utilized digital solutions, including BIM and laser scanning, to recreate and preserve the cathedral's intricate details for future generations, illustrating how technology can aid heritage conservation.
This effort resulted in a detailed digital twin of the structure as it appeared before the fire.
Even before firefighters fully extinguished the flames, a surge of donations flowed in for this symbol of Western civilization.
