Popis: The article presents proposals on the use of the risk index method to determine the sustainability of cultural heritage sites. This INFORM method is based on the assessment of the three risk components by measuring the relevant indicators in each of three directions: the degree of danger; level of vulnerability; counteraction (overcoming) potential. The method includes about 50 different indicators for measuring hazards and impact on them, vulnerability indicators and determining the necessary resources for stopping hazards. The integral risk index is formed as the geometric mean of the component indices: danger, vulnerability and lack of counteraction potential. The application of the INFORM method for the development and adoption of managerial decisions to increase the sustainability and security of cultural and historical heritage sites makes it possible to assess risk, and in the future, planning measures for the restoration and maintenance of cultural heritage sites.
