Abstract
As it is well-known, new outlook is focused on preventive conservation in architectural heritage, reducing the risk of deterioration before it has occurred. To tackle a whole decay evaluation it is necessary to monitor a large number of variables related with contributing factors. The introduction and development of wireless sensor networks rest with data acquisition and monitoring in the long term in order to detect decay phenomena or presence of harmful compounds like dampness, salts, etc., this minimally invasive technique being the required way to achieve preventive conservation. The current project presents different wireless sensors networks (WSN). The main sensors were used to monitor deterioration and study the best technology to deploy in architectural heritage. The project is being carried out in a Renaissance church of the 16th century in the north of Madrid (Spain).
