St. Hubert – archeology and 3D documentation

With the help of an ordinary digital camera, we photographed the zinc statue of Saint Hubert and a deer outside Bistra Castle in Slovenia. We calculated a textured 3D model from the photos in our 3Dsurvey software. The purpose of data collection is the archiving of cultural heritage, 3D documentation of buildings and monuments, which can be the basis for reconstruction & restoration.

Archaeological conservationists play an important role in the monument protection service. Modern heritage protection encompasses more than simply the protection of buildings and objects. By considering the spatial totalities and values of the cultural environment, it brings together the expertise of the fundamental disciplines of archaeology, architecture, ethnology, landscape architecture, urban history, and the specialist knowledge and theoretical approaches of conservation, restoration and preventive archaeology.
