(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The survey discussed here concerns a critical review, through the use of digital technology, of the original design by Gioacchino Ersoch of Pavilion 19 of the former Slaughterhouse of Rome, which was constructed between ... -
As-Built BIM Modeling of Historic Buildings from Laser and Image Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This paper presents two new developments for as-built BIM modeling of historical buildings. The first is a new library of interactive parametric objects designed for modeling classical architectural elements from survey ... -
Aspects of the Digitalisation of the Documentation and Research of Lithuanian Historical Organs
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)About 450 historical organs have survived to the present day in Lithuania. Some of them are almost completely authentic instruments which constitute valuable heritage and have been recognised as being unique in European ... -
ATHENA: Automatic Text Height ExtractioN for the Analysis of old handwritten manuscripts

Building Information Modeling and real world knowledge
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Building Information Modeling is considered by the scientific literature as an emerging trend in the architectural documentation scenario, as it is basically a digital representation of physical and functional features of ... -
Building Information Modelling and the Documentation of Architectural Heritage: between the typical and the specific
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)One of the greatest challenges to using Building Information Modelling (BIM) for the documentation of architectural heritage is in overcoming the propensity of the software toward standardization. Most BIM applications are ... -
The Cathedral of Palermo: from survey to historic interpretation
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The Norman kings built the Cathedral of Palermo at the end of the XII century, in the same place where an older Christian church and then a mosque were sited. Many features of the Cathedral echo the Norman churches in ... -
Cellars of Paris, under the cobbles, cellars!
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This project of systematic investigation of Parisian cellars is by nature pluri-disciplinary. It relies on the complementary skills of historians, architectural historians, archaeologists, architects and engineers. For ... -
A computer-assisted constraint-based system for assembling fragmented objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)We propose a computer-assisted constraint-based methodology for virtual reassembly of Cultural Heritage (CH) artworks. Instead than focusing on automatic, unassisted reassembly, we targeted the scenarios where the ... -
Digital reconstruction and visualization in archaeology. Case-study drawn from the work of the Swedish Pompeii Project
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The Swedish Pompeii Project started in 2000 as a research and fieldwork activity initiated by the Swedish Institute in Rome. The aim was to record and analyze an entire Pompeian city-block, Insula V 1. Since autumn 2011 a ... -
Documentation and dissemination of Cultural Heritage: current solutions and considerations about its digital implementation
