Documentation, Three-Dimensional (3D) Modelling and visualization of cultural heritage by using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry and terrestrial laser scanners

摘要

Cultural heritages are the most important source of communication between the past and the future. The importance of documenting and preserving cultural heritage is becoming more and more clear. Traditional documentation techniques have been replaced by modern documentation techniques along with developing technology. Especially, the increase in the measurement accuracy of electronic devices has increased the accuracy of documentation studies. In this study, terrestrial laser scanning technique (TLS) and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry technique were used. The evaluation of terrestrial laser scanning data was performed in Scene software, and the data obtained by UAV photogrammetry technique was performed in Agisoft metashape and Pix4D software. The sensitivity of the data obtained, the costs of the software and the techniques used were compared with each other. The prominent features of the techniques compared with each other were revealed at the end of the study.
