Sviluppo e rappresentazione digitale di superfici architettoniche complesse per la documentazione e il restauro

Abstract

This research explains the methodology applied to the representation of the column shafts and capitals of the Temple C in the Selinunte Archaeological Site.Using mathematical auxiliary surfaces and NURBS modelling tools, textured highly-detailed meshes, produced with photogrammetry and laser scanner 3D data, was unwrapped onto a reference plane.The purpose of this unwrapping is to realize orthoimages that accurately describe the conic and toric surfaces of column shafts and echinus.Methodology gives a solution to the restoration and conservation specialists offering drawings on which to detect, map and quantify in these the damaged areas on complex curved surfaces.
