Large-scale photogrammetry: the case of the Roman baths of Alange, Badajoz (Spain)

Description

Photogrammetry applied to heritage documentation has undergone significant development in recent years. The research objective we present is to synthesise the result of the work carried out by employing and studying the application of large-scale photogrammetric techniques in an integrated manner coherently and exhaustively. This research has been applied in the Roman Baths of Alange case, which was declared a World Heritage Site (UNESCO, 1993). This significant ensemble lacks detailed planimetric documentation and archaeological interventions. This research has established a comprehensive overview of the difficulties affecting the characteristics of the photogrammetric technique and its development in architecturally complex, narrow, enormous, and data collectionchallenging places. This has been reflected in a point cloud of the surveyed site. Thus, the aim is to understand the scope of the technique and analyse each of its characteristics.
