Abstract

Three dimensional modeling has become an important tool for applications including record keeping, virtual reality and structural analysis of architectural heritage. Laser scanning and photogrammetry are the two most-used techniques. Whereas the former provides a fast and accurate model, the required equipment is bulky and difficult to position. Therefore, it cannot provide a complete model of the monument. The latter technique uses a digital camerawhich can be used manually, located on a drone or on top of supporting structures. Hence, this versatile technique can generate complete 3D models at the expense of larger processing times. This work proposes a mixed approach for digitization of architectural heritage combining the data from laser scanning and photogrammetry. This approach is applied in three churches of the Andean-Baroque Route. The results show high-detailed 3D digital models which subsequently can be used for generating architectural drawings, 3D solid models, walk-through videos and animations.
