| Summary: | This paper deals with the possibilities of creating a 3-D model and a
visualization technique for a presentation of historical buildings and sites
in Peru. The project Nasca/CTU is documenting historical objects by using
several techniques. This paper describes the documentation and the
visualization of two historical churches (<i>San Jose</i> and <i>San Xavier</i> Churches) and the
pre-Hispanic archaeological site <i>La Ciudad Perdida de Huayuri (Abandoned town near Huayuri)</i> in Nasca region by using photogrammetry
and remote sensing. Both churches were damaged by an earthquake. We use
different process for the documentation of these objects. Firstly,
PhotoModeler software was used for the photogrammetric data processing of
the acquired images. The subsequent making models of both churches were
different too. Google SketchUp software was used for the San Jose Church and
the 3-D model of San Xavier Church was created in MicroStation software.
While in the modelling of the "Abandoned town" near Huayuri, which was
destroyed by a climatic event (El Niño), the terrestrial photogrammetry,
satellite data and GNSS measurement were applied. The general output of the
project is a thematic map of this archaeological site; C<sup>14</sup> method was
used for dating. |
