<abstract>
<p>&lt;p&gt;As stated the Nara Document on Authenticity and the last Restoration Charter, valorisation of Cultural Heritage sites requires to
understand its tangible and intangible values. These values need to be considered as variables that change along the time and space,
and they are the result of the interaction between the cultural heritage assets with its history (civilization, societies, etc.). Under this
basis, the research project SmartWall attempts to develop a new platform for the valorisation of the Medieval Wall of Ávila, and thus
the transmission of its tangible and intangible values to the society. To this end, SmartWall uses an efficient combination between
360 images, 3D/4D models and a geospatial database. This combination provides the following capabilities: i) upgrading the
information in real-time, adding, modifying or deleting any type of document; ii) filtering the information in accordance with specific
criteria and; iii) managing the information according with different profiles of the user (e.g. expert user, students and tourists). All
this information is boosted with a direct link to a 4D model of the Wall, which allows analysing any aspect of the Wall through time.
The development and validation of the SmartWall platform was performed in the &lt;i&gt;Alcázar&lt;/i&gt; Gate, one of the most emblematic parts of
the Medieval Wall of Avila.&lt;/p&gt;</p>
