Virtual Heritage in the Cloud: New Perspectives for the Virtual Museum of Bologna
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
This paper focuses on the integration of Cloud computing tools and user-generated content into an online cultural virtual environment. Our investigation aimed to clarify whether the Metaverse can be used as a spatial ...
The Digital 3D Survey as Standard Documentation of the Archaeological Stratigraphy
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
In this contribution we describe tools and methods used to perform three-dimensional photogrammetric survey of different archaeological contexts. In particular, we studied in depth some aspects: swiftness (of the proceeding), ...
Dense 3D Point Cloud Generation from Multiple High-resolution Spherical Images
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
The generation of virtual models of cultural heritage assets is of high interest for documentation, restoration, development and promotion purposes. To this aim, non-invasive, easy and automatic techniques are required. ...
A Repository for Heterogeneous and Complex Digital Cultural Objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
The paper proposes a solution for a repository of digital cultural objects, which can manage complex data as 3D objects, videos and more, together with the related metadata. The repository is built with open source components ...
WebGL-based Streaming and Presentation Framework for Bidirectional Texture Functions
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
Museums and Cultural Heritage institutions have a growing interest in presenting their collections to a broader community via the Internet. The photo-realistic presentation of interactively inspectable digital 3D replicas ...
Documentation and Interpretation of an Archeological Excavation: an Experience with Dense Stereo Reconstruction Tools
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
An archeological excavation is usually a rapidly evolving environment: several factors (weather, costs, permissions) force the work to be concentrated in a few weeks. Moreover, excavating is essentially a mono-directional ...
Global Consistency in the Automatic Assembly of Fragmented Artefacts
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
Automatic reconstruction of fragmented objects is of great interest in archaeology, where artefacts are often found in a fractured state. In this paper, we focus on the problem of automatically agglomerating clusters of ...
Assessing Film Heritage as a City Promotion Tool
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
Cultural tourists are currently looking for new destinations and experiences. The tourism industry itself is very competitive with many new destinations trying to attract tourists. Moreover, there has been an increasing ...
ROV-3D, 3D Underwater Survey Combining Optical and Acoustic Sensor
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
ROV 3D project aims at developing innovative tools which link underwater photogrammetry and acoustic measurements from an active underwater sensor. The results will be 3D high resolution surveys of underwater sites. The ...
Fast and Robust Semi-Automatic Registration of Photographs to 3D Geometry
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
We present a simple, fast and robust technique for semi-automatic 2D-3D registration capable to align a large set of unordered images to a massive point cloud with minimal human effort. Our method converts the hard to solve ...
