Documentation
Accurate documentation of our cultural heritage provides the foundation for informed conservation, research, and storytelling
Digital documentation transforms cultural sites into detailed, interactive models, serving multiple practical purposes. These models provide invaluable tools for conservators planning restoration, researchers analyzing architectural intricacies, educators crafting immersive lessons, and storytellers using them as canvases to weave narratives.
Our Digital Documentation Methodology
CyArk employs a state-of-the-art methodology that integrates data from LiDAR devices with both aerial and terrestrial photogrammetry. This combination results in a photo-textured 3D mesh, capturing millimeter-resolution details of core areas of the subject.
Beyond the primary subject, our approach also provides comprehensive documentation of the broader surrounding environment, ensuring a holistic representation of the site.
