The technological solutions today offered by Geomatics provide new very promising opportunities for Cultural Heritage surveying, either for the primary surveying process or for representation purposes, for objects of architectural,... more
The research presented outlines the use of terrestrial laser scanning as a method of digitally capturing an at-risk Buffalo Jump site in south-central Alberta. The bison faunal material and other archaeological remains present at the base... more
Military architecture heritage is frequently built on rock masses affected by slope instability and weathering processes, which progressively undermine the foundations and cause collapses and toppling of the masonries. The latter can be... more
The merging of photogrammetry and computer vision has raised discussions regarding its ability to produce very dense point clouds, comparable, under circumstances to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS). This paper approaches this issue in... more
The use of 3D laser scanner in documenting heritage sites has increased significantely over the past few years. This is maily due to advances of such systems which allow for the fast and reliable generation of millions of 3D points.... more
ABSTRACT: LIDAR systems have come to be extensively used in photogrammetry and mapping sciences. The accuracy of 3D information is mainly affected by navigational and system-dependent uncertainties, but also by the laser beam properties... more
Der Krautturm des Heidelberger Schlosses, heute als „Gesprengter Turm“ bekannt, wurde 1693 im Zuge des Pfälzer Erbfolgekriegs gesprengt. Der massive Rundturm aus rotem Sandstein, der eine Mauerstärke bis zu 6,50 m besitzt, wurde dabei... more
Graphic and metric information about the site and its environment and about the different structures and artefacts located are indispensable for the optimal management of an archaeological excavation. A Geographic Information System... more
The superimposition of geological formations with marked contrast in geotechnical properties presents one of the most critical environments for slope instability due to the different response of the materials to the applied disturbances.... more
While heritage monuments are all 3D objects within the landscape the potential for recording and analysis of such objects in 3D environments has only recently been realised. This presents the opportunity not only for point-in-time,... more
A holistic methodology combining conventional diagnostic investigations and kinematic analysis performed on 3D laser scanning survey is here proposed for rockfall hazard assessment and erosion patterns study, to map critical sectors and... more
Housed within the distinctive architectural fabric of the former L&N Railroad Depot and listed on the Water Avenue Historic District National Register of Historic Places, the Old Depot Museum depicts life in Alabama and the histories that... more
As an active remote sensing technique, Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) is popular for constructing detailed 3D models of complex objects. To create a complete 3D scene, TLS point clouds scanned from multiple positions need to be... more
