Laser scanning methodology allows to reconstruct the metric characteristics of objects at different LOD (Level Of Detail) providing spatially dense points clouds. In particular, the terrestrial application carried out in the last years have demonstrated the potentialities of the methodology useful in many different sectors. This tecnique has been used also for the “Cavallo ligneo” of the “Palaz...
