A presente Dissertação de Mestrado, tem como foco os Sistemas de Informação Geográfica (SIG) e a sua aplicação ao património cultural imóvel da cidade da Praia, capital de Cabo Verde. O estudo refere-se à ligação entre tecnologias geoespaciais e salvaguarda e valorização do património histórico e cultural, tendo como caso de estudo o espaço urbano ou bairro do Plateau, correspondente à zona histórica da cidade. O principal objetivo é demonstrar como os SIG podem ser uma ferramenta eficaz para mapear e criar bases de dados, descrevendo as infraestruturas do património. Mapearam-se e sintetizaram-se numa base de dados, as 74 infraestruturas do património cultural do Plateau, em 10 tipologias distintas. Entre outros atributos, refira-se que datam de 1800 a 1960 e cerca de 60% são residenciais. Inserem-se em solo Urbano, na UOPG 2 da Praia Centro (U2) do Plano Diretor Municipal da Praia e 5,4% situam-se em ruas que privilegiam a circulação de peões. Cerca de 68% estão em bom estado de conservação, o que é uma vantagem na sua salvaguarda e valorização. Foi efetuada uma revisão detalhada da literatura, bem como o acesso à plataforma do Instituto do Património de Cabo Verde (IPC), que veio a revelar-se um elemento-chave, para a recolha de dados. Foi também contextualizada a importância dos SIG na salvaguarda e valorização do património cultural, utilizando dados geoespaciais da Cidade da Praia. Os resultados obtidos realçam várias aplicações práticas dos SIG, como a elaboração de inventários específicos do património. Além do mais, foram abordados os desafios enfrentados e as soluções essenciais para implementar seguramente os SIG na salvaguarda e valorização do património cultural, em circunstâncias urbanas como a Cidade da Praia. Espera-se que os resultados alcançados possam vir a contribuir para a perceção das vantagens e importância dos SIG na gestão do património cultural, apresentando insights importantes para os decisores administrativos e investigadores com interesse neste assunto. Bem como poder vir a contribuir para informar as autoridades nacionais de Cabo Verde, o Governo, o IPC e as entidades locais, como a Câmara Municipal da Cidade da Praia, acerca das boas práticas a seguir para salvaguardar e valorizar este património.
This Master's Dissertation focuses on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and their application to the immovable cultural heritage of the city of Praia, the capital of Cape Verde. The study concerns the link between geospatial technologies and the safeguarding and enhancement of historical and cultural heritage, taking as its case study the urban space or neighborhood of Plateau, corresponding to the historic area of the city. The main objective is to demonstrate how GIS can be an effective tool for mapping and creating databases describing heritage infrastructures. The 74 cultural heritage infrastructures of the Plateau were mapped and summarized in a database, in 10 different typologies. Among other attributes, they date from 1800 to 1960 and around 60% are residential. They are located on urban land, in UOPG 2 Praia Centro (U2) of the Praia Municipal Master Plan and 5.4% are on streets that favor pedestrian circulation. Around 68% are in a good state of repair, which is an advantage when it comes to safeguarding and enhancing them. A detailed literature review was carried out on the case studies, as well as access to the platform of the Cape Verde Heritage Institute (IPC), which proved to be a key element for data collection. The importance of GIS in safeguarding and enhancing cultural heritage was also contextualized, using geospatial data from the city of Praia. The results obtained highlight various practical applications of GIS, such as the preparation of specific heritage inventories. In addition, the challenges faced and the essential solutions for safely implementing GIS in the safeguarding and enhancement of cultural heritage in urban circumstances such as the City of Praia were addressed. It is hoped that the results achieved will contribute to the perception of the advantages and importance of GIS in cultural heritage management, providing important insights for administrative decision-makers and researchers with an interest in this subject. It may also help to inform Cape Verde's national authorities, the government, the IPC and local entities such as the City Council of Praia, about good practices to be followed in order to safeguard and enhance this heritage.
