Camp
The wide variety of solutions for the acquisition, management and integration of three-dimensional survey data, both open source and proprietary, offers a panorama of techniques and tools whose choice depends on numerous factors, in particular the objects or contexts to be surveyed and the conditions of use in the field.
However, a single tool and software is almost never sufficient to meet the descriptive and analytical needs of a larger project.
There is, indeed, an increasing need to integrate data from multiple scanning tools and methods into a single project.
Goals
DIGITAL HERITAGE CAMP 2024 will offer the possibility of an intensive course with 80 hours of face-to-face training by 19 researchers on the use of technical and theoretical tools to:
Evaluate the use of active and passive measurement tools in real applications
Plan and carry out a measurement campaign using photogrammetry and 3D scanners
Process, manage and integrate data sets from different sources
Publish and disseminate the results of measurement campaigns
Expected competences
At the end of the DIGITAL HERITAGE CAMP 2024 participants will be able to:
Plan and execute a topographic survey campaign using TPS and GPS
Plan and execute a photogrammetric survey campaign, both at close range and from UAS, from object to architectural scale
Plan and execute a laser scanner survey campaign, both with TLS and SLAM
Integrate point clouds from photogrammetric and laser scanner surveys into the same project
Digitize objects and architectural details by integrating 3D close-range scanning and photogrammetry
Manage survey data by processing both two- and three-dimensional results
Publish 3D datasets online in interoperable formats with open access by using the E-RIHS infrastructure and open source tools for interactive cross-device use
Application areas
The knowledge acquired during the DIGITAL HERITAGE CAMP 2024 will be applied in several areas: Documentation, conservation and valorization of cultural heritage, restoration, simulation, teaching, animation, cartography, territorial management (GIS), quantitative landscape monitoring, computer graphics, etc.
Topographic surveying and the use of LeonardoXE365 software for the integration of TPS and GPS will be discussed in detail, aerial photogrammetric surveying and data processing with 3D Zephyr, surveying with laser scanners both static with TLS and mobile with SLAM, surveying with SLS of objects and architectural details.
An in-depth analysis of the use of Faro Scene, MeshLab and Cloud Compare is also given, with particular attention to scan alignment, metric error control and remeshing techniques. Methods for publishing extensive 3D surveys online using open source tools are also covered.
