Anomaly Detection using Remote Sensing for the Archaeological Heritage Registration
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The aim of this work is an approach using multisensor remote sensing techniques to recognize the potential remains and recreate the original landscape of three archaeological sites. We investigate the spectral characteristics ... -
Application of Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) technology in the characterisation of construction materials in exceptional buildings: first results.
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This work discusses the use of Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) analysis with the object of studying the degree of degradation of stone material and other elements in cultural heritage monuments, as an alternative ... -
An approach for precise 2D/3D semantic annotation of spatially-oriented images for in situ visualization applications
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Thanks to nowadays technologies, innovative tools afford to increase our knowledge of historic monuments, in the field of preservation and valuation of cultural heritage. These tools are aimed to help experts to create, ... -
Architecture and representation: digital surveying of Pavilion 19 of the former Slaughterhouse (Ex Mattatoio) of Rome
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The survey discussed here concerns a critical review, through the use of digital technology, of the original design by Gioacchino Ersoch of Pavilion 19 of the former Slaughterhouse of Rome, which was constructed between ... -
ArtifactVis2: Managing real-time archaeological data in immersive 3D environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)In this paper, we present a stereoscopic research and training environment for archaeologists called ArtifactVis2. This application enables the management and visualization of diverse types of cultural datasets within a ... -
As-Built BIM Modeling of Historic Buildings from Laser and Image Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This paper presents two new developments for as-built BIM modeling of historical buildings. The first is a new library of interactive parametric objects designed for modeling classical architectural elements from survey ... -
Aspects of the Digitalisation of the Documentation and Research of Lithuanian Historical Organs
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)About 450 historical organs have survived to the present day in Lithuania. Some of them are almost completely authentic instruments which constitute valuable heritage and have been recognised as being unique in European ... -
ATHENA: Automatic Text Height ExtractioN for the Analysis of old handwritten manuscripts
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)A massive digital acquisition of huge sets of deteriorating historical documents is mandatory due to their value and delicacy. The study and the browsing of such digital libraries is becoming crucial for scholars in the ... -
Automatic creation of bas-relieves from single images
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)When we think to bas-relieves it is natural to compare them with sculptures, because they share some common properties such as techniques, materials and shapes. However, from a different perspective, bas-relieves have even ... -
Automatic localization of tombs in aerial imagery: application to the digital archiving of cemetery heritage
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This paper deals with digital archiving of cemetery heritage. A built cemetery is a tangible evidence of historical and cultural periods through the style and the shape of tombs. It gives quantitative information on the ... -
Bologna porticoes project: a 3D repository for WHL UNESCO nomination
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The system of Bologna porticoes, included in 2006 in the Italian tentative list of World heritage sites of UNESCO, will undergo a definitive recognition of the nomination as part of the program of the current municipal ... -
Building Information Modeling and real world knowledge
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Building Information Modeling is considered by the scientific literature as an emerging trend in the architectural documentation scenario, as it is basically a digital representation of physical and functional features of ... -
Building Information Modelling and the Documentation of Architectural Heritage: between the typical and the specific
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)One of the greatest challenges to using Building Information Modelling (BIM) for the documentation of architectural heritage is in overcoming the propensity of the software toward standardization. Most BIM applications are ... -
Capturing of Contemporary Dance for preservation and presentation of choreographies in Online Scores
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)In this paper, we present a generic and affordable approach for an automatized and markerless capturing of movements in dance, which was developed in the Motion Bank / The Forsythe Company project (www.motionbank.org). ... -
The Cathedral of Palermo: from survey to historic interpretation
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The Norman kings built the Cathedral of Palermo at the end of the XII century, in the same place where an older Christian church and then a mosque were sited. Many features of the Cathedral echo the Norman churches in ... -
