The Surveying and Representation Process Applied to Architecture: Non-Contact Methods for the Documentation of Cultural Heritage

Systems based on algorithms that allow one to get automatically three-dimensional data and color from a set of photographs representing the object of interest. These systems are able to automatically retrieve the position and orientation of the cameras used for a reconstruction, from a set of images in any order. It is studied in the fields of computer vision and visual perception.
