MOBILE MAPPING FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE: THE SURVEY OF THE COMPLEX OF ST. JOHN OF THE HERMITS IN PALERMO (ITALY)
2023
Abstract. During the 11th and 12th century, the Arab-Norman architectural style characterized the most beautiful and important Cultural Heritage buildings in Sicily, and especially in Palermo (Italy). The relevance of these monuments is highlighted by their inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites List in 2015. For many years, the University of Palermo has been studying and documenting several Arab-Norman cultural assets, and in particular, the complex of St. John of the Hermits in Palermo (Italy). A first detailed 3D survey of the main structures of this complex was carried out using a terrestrial laser scanner while the 3D survey of the entire complex was made using a Mobile Mapping S…
GEOMATIC TECHNIQUES FOR THE COLONNADE STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF THE HISTORICAL “ CHIARAMONTE STERI” BUILDING
2019
The monitoring of building structures has an increasingly important role in the engineering field, above all because they are concerned with the impact that such structures have in the area where they were built. Often, when walking through the old town centres, we realize just how obsolete and dangerous some buildings (even historic-cultural ones) are. The interest of some local governments in this problem has led, in the last few years, to the study and the trying out of measuring and monitoring methods which, quickly and at low cost, allow to define the extent of the deformation and the degrade in an accurate and reliable way. The Courtyard of “Palazzo Steri - Chiaramonte” is composed of…
TECNOLOGIE DI RILIEVO 3D PER LA DOCUMENTAZIONE, L’INTERPRETAZIONE E LA VALORIZZAZIONE DEL PATRIMONIO ARCHEOLOGICO: IL CASO STUDIO DEL PARCO ARCHEOLOG…
2020
In recent decades, the application of geomatics technologies and methodologies to archaeological studies has led to a substantial change in onsite survey techniques and allowed an interdisciplinary approach between archaeology and digital technologies. The employment of these techniques aims to reduce the time of research and documentation, to acquire large amounts of data and to manage, in a more efficiently and quickly way, different datasets. Moreover, these new approaches provide non-invasive, flexible, low-cost methodologies to improve archaeological documentation from a quantitative and qualitative point of view. Nowadays, archaeologists can take advantage of various recording techniq…
The ‘Archaeological Map of Lilybaeum’
2021
The ‘Archaeological Map of Lilybaeum’ is the result of the long-standing scientific cooperation in Marsala between Palermo and Hamburg Universities. This paper investigates the various methods of field research used to gather the necessary data for the archaeological map of ancient Lilybaeum. There will be a particular focus on the topographic survey and photogrammetric aerial survey by Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) conducted in the years 2017–2019. The aim of the work is to highlight the impact of the results on already existing research hypotheses and the ways in which the resulting map enhances our knowledge of the ancient city of Lilybaeum.
Ricostruzione virtuale dei resti archeologici: sperimentazione di approcci integrati innovativi per lo studio e la valorizzazione dell’area sacra del…
2022
Il progetto di cui si presentano i risultati è rivolto all’ambito delle Scienze applicate al Patrimonio culturale e, nella fattispecie, all’applicazione di metodologie e tecnologie innovative di ricostruzione virtuale di supporto allo studio, alla valorizzazione e alla fruizione innovativa dei beni archeologici. Esso ha richiesto, per l’acquisizione delle competenze necessarie alla sua conduzione, lo svolgimento di uno stage presso la Virtutim srl in Roma, per la formazione all’uso delle tecniche di rilievo 3D e dei software di grafica e modellazione virtuale con cui sono stati realizzati i contenuti multimediali presentati di seguito, nonché un periodo di studio all’estero, presso l’Instit…
Levantamiento 3D para el estudio arqueológico y la reconstrucción virtual del Santuario de Isis en la antigua Lilybaeum (Italia)
2020
[EN] In recent years, the use of three-dimensional (3D) models in cultural and archaeological heritage for documentation and dissemination purposes has increased. New geomatics technologies have significantly reduced the time spent on fieldwork surveys and data processing. The archaeological remains can be documented and reconstructed in a digital 3D environment thanks to the new 3D survey technologies. Furthermore, the products generated by modern surveying technologies can be reconstructed in a virtual environment on effective archaeological bases and hypotheses coming from a detailed 3D data analysis. However, the choice of technologies that should be used to get the best results for dif…
3D survey and modelling of the main portico of the Cathedral of Monreale
2018
3D survey and modelling of Cultural Heritage allow to store a great deal of 3D data that can be managed for different purposes. 3D models can be used for documentation, restoration and knowledge of historic architectures and monuments. In this work, a 3D survey of the main portico of the Cathedral of Monreale (Palermo, Italy) was carried out. The paper presents the data acquisition process and the 3D modelling phase. The work is aimed to reconstruct a 3D model that could be used also to set up an HBIM (Heritage or Historic Building Information Modelling) of the main portico. The result of this study could be considered as a first test to implement an HBIM platform for the whole monumental c…
The Virtual Reconstruction of the Aesculapius and Hygeia Statues from the Sanctuary of Isis in Lilybaeum: Methods and Tools for Ancient Sculptures’ E…
2022
Thanks to recent technological developments in 3D surveys, computer graphics and virtual reality, new scenarios have been opened for the documentation and enhancement of ancient sculptures. When not totally preserved, sculptures can be digitally reproduced, modified and visualized to simulate their physical or virtual reconstruction in a non-invasive way for specialists or for dissemination aims. The virtual sculptural reconstruction process starts usually from the 3D survey of real fragments, and then continues by integrating missing parts with 3D modelling techniques by means of source evaluation. Along with primary data sources (reality-based model), secondary data sources (photos, drawi…
Study and 3D survey of the Roman baths in the archaeological site of Lylibaeum (Marsala, Italy)
2020
Abstract Archaeological documentation is a fundamental step for research and conservation planning phases. Nowadays traditional recording is always supported by geomatics technologies which offer important support to the growth of archaeological study. The integration of sensors and methodologies seems to give the best results, in terms of time, costs and accuracy of products. In particular, the combination of Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) can help the documentation of complex sites and the production of 3D and 2D products for different purposes. The paper focuses on the integration of TLS and UAV methodologies to record the thermal baths of the Roman Dom…
Low cost system for visualization and exhibition of pottery finds in archeological museums
2015
The objective of this project is to build a low-cost system for surveying, modeling, prototyping and interactive visualizing aimed at the enhancement of islamic pottery finds of X – XI centuries. The system will allow various applications: the creation of systems for displaying artifacts from the museum alongside the exhibition, the virtual view of restorations from fragments, including AR and VR, the physical reconstruction of the original form using 3D printer to show the pieces in their entirety, as well as the construction of interactive virtual archives to be made available to scholars and visitors.
