The case studies constitute the application examples of the protocols. They are written with the aim of giving to the user concrete cases illustrating the various problematics and acquisition strategies described in these protocols. They are structured in the same way as these latters, from the field data acquisition to the generation of a specific graphic documentation (orthophotographies, depth maps, point clouds, 3D models, etc.)
The choice was made to multiply the number of cases, even within the same kind of artifact (outside buildings, indoor survey, etc.), in order to describe and comment as exhaustively as possible the various situations the user can meet with during the photographic acquisition.
Chapelle impériale, Ajaccio (France)
This survey serie was conducted within the context of the various experimentations carried out on the Apero and MicMac softwares, in association with the CICRP and DRAC de Corse. The aim was to realise a 3D-model of the Church indoor spaces...
Cathédrale Saint-Trophime, Arles (France)
This survey was leaded within the context of the various experimentations carried out on the Apero and MicMac softwares, during a tour of Arles. The objective was to realise a 3D-model and a complete orthophotography of the Saint-Trophime Church main wall...
