From the “Sacred Theatres” of Andrea Pozzo to the International Truncated Calotte: History and Representation of the Immacolatella Church’s Tribune i…
2022
The contribution, divided between history and representation, aims to analyse the design genesis and the sources used by the architect Giovanni Amico for the modernization of the Immacolatella church’s tribune in Trapani (since 1732). The church is devoid of studies and surveys with digital instrumentation but its unique compositional characteristics, which exploit the theme of the manipulation of space and light for scenographic and liturgical purposes, require in-depth analysis. The solution applied to the church tribune combines different compositional themes linked to the Roman design world and in particular by Andrea Pozzo in relation to the “sacred theatres” produced for the Jesuits a…
Il Teatro Nord e le mura proto-bizantine di Hierapolis di Frigia. Dall'indagine topografica alla ricostruzione 2D e 3D
2012
Il Teatro Nord e la cinta muraria proto-bizantina di Hierapolis di Frigia (Pamukkale, Denizli, Turchia sud-occidentale) sono stati a lungo trascurati dalle attività di ricerca della Missione Archeologica Italiana, concentrata su monumenti meglio conservati e con un apparato architettonico e scultoreo più rilevante. Solo dal 2008 essi sono stati oggetto di indagini sistematiche da parte dei ricercatori del Laboratorio di Topografia Antica, Archeologia e Telerilevamento dell'Istituto per i Beni Archeologici e Monumentali del CNR (Lecce). Lo studio di dettaglio dei resti conservati, realizzato integrando rilievo topografico, prospezioni geofisiche ed indagini geologiche, ha permesso di definir…
From aerial survey to representation and visualization: the Temple G of Selinunte
2022
The paper reports the outputs of a research work focused on the segmentation of meshes generated from aerial photogrammetric survey, aiming at the implementation of a database integrated in a web-based Information System developed with 3D-Hop technology, that uses models as the access point to information data. Segmentation is a relevant topic in cultural heritage documentation, since it is the a pre-requisite for the development of systems that connect information data to 3D models. The chosen case study is the Doric Temple G of Selinunte, an archaeological site in southern Sicily. Temple G, one of the biggest Doric Temples of Magna Graecia, it is today a huge heap of ruins, probably due t…
Virtual Museum Net
2006
A project named ”Virtual Museum Net of Magna Graecia” is presented, whose objective is to provide an unitary image of the archaeological heritage of Calabria (a Southern Italian region), through Computer Technology, Multimedia Designing and Virtual Reconstructions. The project aims to encourage the technological transfer of the most advanced researches in the exploitation and conservation sector of the Cultural Heritage. The ”Virtual Museum Net of Magna Graecia” project is included in the context of Knowledge Media Design for Museums. This project links the museum scenery and multimedia, in order to use technology as system of representation.
INTEGRATED SURVEYING AND MODELING TECHNIQUES FOR THE DOCUMENTATION AND VISUALIZATION OF THREE ANCIENT HOUSES IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREA
2015
The paper is focused on the layout and testing of a workflow for the documentation of archeological remains, addressed to the study, visualization and information data input. Topographic, laser scanning and photogrammetric data have been used to build up 3D textured models of three ancient houses built in Sicily and in Tunisia in the Hellenistic and Roman age. 3D models have been used to extract conventional representations (plans and sections), analyze the geometric and proportional features and propose a virtual reconstruction of the original layout. The final step of the research work has been addressed to the creation of a web-based tools for the visualization of the models addressed to…
Hulot's Selinunte: digital analysis and virtual reconstruction
2021
Some drawings feature a powerful evocative nature, capable of presenting a truthful vision that can replace, in collective imagination, the actual expression of reality. This is the case of the "restorations" of Selinunte proposed by the French architect Jean-Louis Hulot (Paris 1871 -1959) which still today evoke the splendours of the ancient city. Thanks to his accurate surveys and inspired by the visit to the remains of further ancient cities such as Priene, Tera, Delos, and Pompeii, Hulot proposed in his watercolour drawings a vision of a "living" city, rendered at the height of its architectural and social magnificence. The paper presents a study on digital solutions that combine data f…
The virtual reconstruction of the minaret of Mansourah mosque (Algeria)
2015
This contribution synthetically addresses some of the photogrammetric solutions available today in the field of architectural-archaeological survey and the related applications outcome, evaluated during both the acquisition phase of metric data than in those of effective yield of refunds infographics. Therefore, we have focused on the virtual reconstruction of one of the most emblematic and symbolic building of the Algerian culture, the mosque of Mansourah, returning the minaret as it appeared before its partial collapse, namely correspondent in geometry, textures, and colours. The work is part of a larger research project to promote knowledge and dissemination of Algeria cultural heritage,…

Techniques and procedures for the definition of AR applications in architectural and archaeological contexts
2022
The growth and development of Augmented reality applications and their use in different contexts has been recently fostered by two factors: i) the hardware and computing power of mobile devices has been radically improved; ii) Apple and Google have released two development platforms for AR applications. AR has been a major topic in research on cultural heritage fruition for many years, but the latest developments are really promising, and they seem capable of overcoming the difficulties that have delayed the diffusion of this technology. The paper focuses the potential and criticalities of augmented reality systems used for fruition purposes in architectural and archaeological contexts. The…
