"Generating a photo realistic virtual model for the large Domitilla-Catacomb in Rome";
Talk: 9th Conference on Optical 3-D Measurement Techniques, Technische Universität Wien; 2009-07-01 - 2009-07-03; in: "9th Conference on Optical 3-D Measurement Techniques", (2009), 38 - 47.



English abstract:
The Austrian START Project "The Domitilla-Catacomb in Rome" aims mainly to recover a complete 3D model for the Domitilla catacomb which is the largest catacomb in Rome. This model will allow archaeologists to virtually reach the catacomb and accordingly conduct their research without putting their feet underground. In this work, the documentation procedure using laser scanning technology and digital photogrammetry will be discussed. The automation is a challenge in such large sites therefore we focus here on a developed algorithm for automatic texture mapping with its corresponding software.
