TLDR
In the course of their research campaign in Siberia, Ghent University archaeologists have developed a simple and cost effective method for the rapid 3D imaging of rock art, standing stelae and surface monuments as mentioned in this paper.Abstract:
In the course of their research campaign in Siberia, Ghent University archaeologists have developed a simple and cost effective method for the rapid 3D imaging of rock art, standing stelae and surface monuments. Their procedure will undoubtedly have a big role to play in archaeological research in advance of the oil pipeline expected soon.read more

Towards a three-dimensional cost-effective registration of the archaeological heritage
Jeroen De Reu,Gertjan Plets,Geert Verhoeven,Philippe De Smedt,Machteld Bats,Bart Cherretté,Wouter De Maeyer,Jasper Deconynck,Davy Herremans,Pieter Laloo,Marc Van Meirvenne,Wim De Clercq +11 more
TL;DR: The possibilities for 3D registration of archaeological features are examined in a computer vision-based approach using the PhotoScan software package (Agisoft LCC) and it proved to be a scientific and cost-effective improvement compared to traditional documentation methods.
High-Resolution Monitoring of Himalayan Glacier Dynamics Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Walter W. Immerzeel,Philip Kraaijenbrink,Joseph M. Shea,Arun Bhakta Shrestha,Francesca Pellicciotti,Francesca Pellicciotti,Marc F. P. Bierkens,S.M. de Jong +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a UAV was deployed over the debris-covered tongue of the Lirung Glacier in Nepal and the mass loss and surface velocity of the glacier were derived based on ortho-mosaics and digital elevation models.

On introducing an image-based 3D reconstruction method in archaeological excavation practice
Jeroen De Reu,Philippe De Smedt,Davy Herremans,Marc Van Meirvenne,Pieter Laloo,Wim De Clercq +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that image-based 3D modeling can be an excellent and suitable method for the recording, documentation and visualization of the excavated archaeological heritage and can cause a(n) (r)evolution in archaeological excavation practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-image photogrammetry as a practical tool for cultural heritage survey and community engagement
TL;DR: It is argued that a concerted approach is required to create and disseminate simple and reliable workflows to ensure that the highly automated workflows adopted by archaeologists in contract-led contexts are robust and reliable and underpinned by guidance and knowledge exchange.

A Comparison and Evaluation of Multi-View Stereo Reconstruction Algorithms
TL;DR: This paper first survey multi-view stereo algorithms and compare them qualitatively using a taxonomy that differentiates their key properties, then describes the process for acquiring and calibrating multiview image datasets with high-accuracy ground truth and introduces the evaluation methodology.

The Interpretation of Structure from Motion
TL;DR: It is shown that this scheme will correctly decompose scenes containing arbitrary rigid objects in motion, recovering their three dimensional structure and motion.

Taking computer vision aloft – archaeological three-dimensional reconstructions from aerial photographs with photoscan
TL;DR: Using a mixture of archaeological case studies, it will be shown that this low-cost application produces excellent results from aerial imagery in a minimum of time with almost no effort needed.

Combining photogrammetry and laser scanning for the recording and modelling of the Late Intermediate Period site of Pinchango Alto, Palpa, Peru
Karsten Lambers,Henri Eisenbeiss,Martin Sauerbier,Denise Kupferschmidt,Thomas Gaisecker,Soheil Sotoodeh,Thomas Hanusch +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the 3D modeling of Pinchango Alto, Peru, based on a combination of image and range data, using a mini helicopter and a terrestrial laser scanner, both equipped with a camera.
