HBIM FOR ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES: FROM SFM BASED SURVEY TO ALGORITHMIC MODELING

Algorithmic Identification of Looted Archaeological Sites from Space

In response to widespread looting of archaeological sites, archaeologists have used satellite imagery to enable the investigation of looting of affected archaeological sites. Such analyses often require time-consuming direct human interpretation of images, with the potential for human-induced error. We introduce a novel automated image processing mechanism applied to the analysis of very high-r...

Web-based visualization of virtual archaeological sites

We present a web-based visualization tool for archaeological sites that has been developed within the 3D Murale project. The problem of structuring the scene prior to visualization is addressed by an extension to the 3D modeling and animation package MayaTM which enables communication with the common data pool of 3D Murale. Texture data is prepared for visualization by encoding it using the JPE...

3d Surveying and Modeling of Archaeological Sites - Some Critical Issues -

The goal of the reported project is to test and evaluate 3D surveying and modelling methods to document the remaining ancient byzantine city walls of the archaeological site of Aquileia in Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy. The objectives are threefold: (1) to use 3D data to create maps, façades and sections that provide information useful for archaeological purposes such as the investigation of arc...

SITUS - A Web Based Information System for Archaeological Sites

The papapresents the results of the project CORARC, funded by the Italian Ministry for University and Scientific Research. aimcd at developing a Wcb based system, called SITUS, to support the management of information for archaeological sites. Thc system supports, through a relational database and a G I s server, the archival and management of multiniedia and cartographic data coming fsom a s t...
