Abstract 3D point cloud data obtained from laser scans, images, and videos are able to
provide accurate and fast records of the 3D geometries of construction-related objects. Thus …

Masonry structures dominate cultural heritage sites worldwide. Public authorities ought to
preserve and safeguard such structures for future generations. However, precise evaluation …

In the cultural heritage field, point clouds, as important raw data of geomatics, are not only
three-dimensional (3D) spatial presentations of 3D objects but they also have the potential …

Laser scanning 3D technology is gaining prominence in Architecture, Engineering and
Construction, aiming to organize space and shape the human environment. Main …

Abstract The creation of Cultural Heritage (CH) Digital Twins is based on i) the capture of
geometric data using digital technologies (laser scanning and photogrammetry); ii) the …

Methods employed for surveying buildings for condition have traditionally been reliant upon
visual assessment and manual recording. Survey of traditional masonry also ostensibly …

Symptoms such as cracks and other discontinuities of the scanned surface are indicators of
poor technical conditions of buildings. The efficient detection of such changes using non …

Built cultural heritage is under constant threat due to environmental pressures,
anthropogenic damages, and interventions. Understanding the preservation state of …

Abstract 3D point clouds have emerged as a crucial source of information in the field of
Cultural Heritage due to their ability to capture reality with high density and accuracy. They …
