Abstract: This Volume collects all the dissemination contributions presented at the Christmas Workshop devoted to chemometric analysis for the processing of experimental data, with particular reference to spectroscopic imaging. The training objective was achieved and all the participants were provided with the necessary technical supports and software needed to follow the lessons and demonstration exercises held by expert teachers in multivariate analysis. The lectures addressed the topic of caring and preserving environmental and cultural heritages, highlighting the importance of diagnostics, the use of integrated and innovative techniques, and advanced statistic for data interpretation. Overall, the Volume is the results of the synergistic cooperation between different disciplines, too surreptitiously classified into humanities and technical-scientific.
