2D photogrammetric survey

In the present program of activities for interventions on the cultural heritage, now decidedly oriented for goods preservation, the photogrammetric survey is an irremissible tool for documentation, measure and documentation...

PHOTO-PLAN

Photo-plan of the flooring

When we say "photoplane of the flooring" we mean a mosaic of several digital photos each of which, through the use control points directly measured on the object with topographic instruments, is transformed in a metrically correct image...

USED-TECHNIQUE

Definition of the used technique

Given a photo (i.e. a central projection) in which is represented a well visible flat element, it is possible to carry out a transformation (the so called "rectification") in order to bring the flat surface from its original perspective position to the orthogonal projection...

THEORETICAL PRINCIPLES

Theoretical principles

The transformation on which this process is based (improperly called rectification) it defined in geometry as "photogrammetric restitution with homography application". Homography is a transformation between two flat spaces and it is ruled by eight parameters...

SCAFFOLDING DESIGN

Scaffolding design

The project of the scaffoldings have been very complicate since the wide field to be covered and the considerable heights to be reached, it made necessary the realisation of scaffoldings encumbering and out of industrial standards.

PROCESSING

Processing

...After this sessions of data preparing, it was possible to start with the rectification process using the ARCHIS software, a package developed by Siscam which, starting from control points co-ordinates, it is able to operate an homographic transformation on the original images...

SURVEY RESULTS

Survey results

The photogrammetric survey realised with the digital photoplanes technique, is, without any doubts, a basic and irreplaceable means for the documentation of marble tarsias decorations of the Siena Cathedral flooring...

DELIVERED MATERIALS

Delivered materials

The delivered materials are only digital images and vector data recorded on cd rom that, when necessary, can be plotted at the wanted scale (although the best representation is at 1:50 – 1:25 scales)...
