Resumen: Abstract. Cultural Heritage has been significantly impacted by advancements in the Information and Communications Technology domains, which have inspired a strong multidisciplinary interest and enabled the development of innovative strategies for the preservation, management, and enhancement of the heritage itself. Notably, the digitisation process, which entails the acquisition of 3D data obtained through cutting-edge LiDAR and photogrammetric scanning techniques, is set up as an advantageous tool for producing an accurate representation of the historical buildings. In addition, point clouds and reliable HBIM models have caught the minds of the architectural community, and are now receiving huge backing from Artificial Intelligence. Such support is provided by procedures that link semantic features to structural and decorative elements. In this scenario, the following research is presented: the aim is to test an automated iterative process within a scan-to-BIM methodology, starting from automatic point cloud segmentation operations with open-source, model-fitting algorithms. This method will prove to be a solid support for the final phase of the 3D parametric/adaptive reconstruction that’s also compatible with BIM Authoring. The study focuses on various masonry vaulted systems. These types of structures are first examined using ideal models, which were perfectly discretised and set up by the user, and then employed as a starting point for validating the parameters of the RANSAC algorithm on point clouds acquired by laser scanners. These latter ones nevertheless have irregular geometries, making comprehension, analysis, and management far more challenging.
