Abstract

Reality-based 3D modelling is the entire process of generating a digital 3D object from a set of images or range maps. The aim of this work is to report an image- and range-based production pipeline to reconstruct complex and detailed objects with a combination of digital reconstruction techniques coupled with GPS information and maps for correct georeferencing and scaling, in order (1) to exploit the intrinsic potential and advantages of each technique, (2) to compensate for the individual weaknesses of each method, and (3) to achieve more accurate and complete surveying, modelling, interpretation, and digital results. To demonstrate the reliability, precision, and robustness of the combined use of photogrammetric and computer vision techniques for reality-based 3D modelling, several real applications are illustrated and discussed. These include cultural heritage documentation and preservation along with architectural, geological, and structural applications.
