New Technology, Old Spaces: Reality Capture and Historic Preservation
In the past, being able to accurately capture existing historical site information was challenging. Today though, new technologies are allowing for easy data collection through photogrammetry, point cloud data, and 3D modeling. In this presentation we will go over what Reality Capture is, and how we can easily acquire and work with data to create models that reflect real-life conditions. We’ll review several reality capture techniques and tools (some are even free!). We will focus on best practices for historical preservation purposes.
Learning Objectives
Learn what reality capture is and how it can be applied to preservation
Hear about different techniques and tools for reality capture
Understand what point cloud data is and how to use it when creating 3D models of Historical Sites
Learn tips and tricks for capturing your site and learn what to do with the data after you have acquired it
