Abstract

Preservation of cultural heritage is associated with their fixation by performing measurements. They are very effective when we use the terrestrial laser scanning method, as a means of obtaining the most complete and reliable information on the geometry of the object at a particular time. However, the method of laser scanning is not so widely represented in the technical literature, for instance, on Totalstation- or theodolite surveys due to the relatively recent introduction in geodetic practice, especially for the purposes of fixing monuments. There are many questions on application of this technology for the above mentioned aim, they focus on ensuring the required regulatory or its accuracy. The authors discuss a geodetic method for ensuring the precision of laser scanning surveys including the design and estimating the fixed control points’ exactness, as well as the tie ones. The influence of angular and linear measurements over the laser positioning accuracy is shown. The technique is demonstrated, including modeling design schemes and their comparison with actual data. The research results are confined to the world-class cultural heritage site of Baalbek temple complex in Lebanon.
