Cosimo Monteleone is Associate Professor in Representation of Architecture and Descriptive Geometry at the University of Padua (IT). He teaches at the bachelor, master and PhD levels.

He is currently working on descriptive geometry, stereotomy, geometrical analysis and virtual reconstruction of architecture and infrastructure, digital survey (lidar and photogrammetry), 3D modeling (CAD, BIM), virtual reality and augmented reality, 3D prototyping, file to factory processes, and parametric surfaces for design.

He is a member of the international research projects Visualizing Cities and Digital Bomarzo:

- Visualizing Cities explores digital and visual representation of landscapes, structures, environments, history, culture, architecture, events, and populations, using new technologies of surveying, mapping, imaging, 3D modeling, virtual and augmented reality.
- Digital Bomarzo is a 3D digital reconstruction of the original landscape, architectural objects and sculptures of Parco dei Mostri in Bomarzo, using laser scanners, photogrammetry and a non-destructive underground survey to investigate and reconstruct the original water system.

He is member of the National Technical Committee UNI - UNI / CT 047 / GL 03 (Technical drawing for building and installation).

He has directed several digital and multimedia projects of exhibitions including: Piero della Francesca. Il disegno tra arte e scienza (Biblioteca Panizzi, Reggio Emila – IT – 2015); Daniele Barbaro (1514-70). Letteratura, scienza e arti nella Venezia del Rinascimento (Salone Sansoviniano, Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana in Venice – IT – 2016); Build Upon Water: from the ‘Carità’ to the ‘Gallerie dell’Accademia’ (site-specific installation at the Gallerie dell’Accademia Museum in Venice – IT – since 2015).

His various scientific articles focus on descriptive geometry, geometrical analysis and representation of architecture, 3D modeling, and digital survey.

He is also the author or co-author of three books:

- Frank Lloyd Wright. Geometria e astrazione nel Guggenheim Museum (Rome: Aracne 2013);
- La prospettiva di Daniele Barbaro. Note critiche e trascrizione del manoscritto It. IV, 39=5446 (Rome: Aracne 2020);
- Daniele Barbaro’s Perspective of 1568 (co-authored with Kim Williams) (Cham: Springer 2021).
