Castle Landenberg

In this paper we demonstrate the workflow of 3D modelling and photorealistic texture mapping based on close range imagery acquired with a mini-UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and in terrestrial mode. For generation of a highly accurate 3D model, a combined photogrammetric processing of these images was required. The conducted workflow consists of the following steps: project planning, flight plan...

Measuring the Resilience of Gardens in Yazd

Over the past decades, the horizontal growth of cities has led to the integration of rural-garden areas within the parent city. This phenomenon is more serious in the arid areas of Iran because of the limited networks of water supply (Qanat) and the proximity of settlements around this network and has caused the destruction of the gardens of these urban textures that are rural-based.

Furthermore, can we digitise their creativity activities within an integrative socio-cultural collaborative technology platform that could then support distributed innovation. First, we consider the complexity of creative cultures from the perspect...

Castle curves and codes

We introduce two types of curves of interest for coding theory purposes: the so-called Castle and weak Castle curves. We study the main properties of codes arising from these curves.
