This paper explores the potential of using Microsoft's Kinect to create a low-cost and portable system to virtually navigate, through a prototype 3D GIS, the digitally reconstructed ancient Maya city and UNESCO World Heritage Site of Copan in Honduras. The 3D GIS, named QueryArch3D, was developed as part of the MayaArch3D project (http://mayaarch3d.unm.edu), which explores the possibilities of integrating...
Game engines can be regarded as powerful tools in the Cultural Heritage domain, not just as dissemination tools, but for managing the urban context in real time. This case-study is based on the ongoing project of Pietrabuona Castle (Pescia, Italy). It is an interesting example of a stratified historical centre, the conservation and promotion of which might benefit from using a new, integrated survey...
This paper outlines a two stage approach for digitally recording cultural heritage sites. This approach involves a 3D modeling stage and the integration of the 3D model into a 3D GIS for further management and analysis. The modeling stage is carried out using a new concept; Historic Building Information Modeling (HBIM) which has been developed at the Dublin Institute of Technology [12]. Historic Building...
