Abstract
Digital 3D models of historic buildings or cultural heritage objects are useful for preservation.Such models can not only be stored permanently,but also supply us with clear guidelines for the restoration process.3D models also provide sufficient information about geometrical characteristics that are useful for inspecting and classifying objects.The Bayon temple,which consists of 52 towers,is one of the most well-known buildings of the Angkor monument in Cambodia.The temple is famous for its towers which have four faces at the four cardinal points. According to research performed by the Japanese government team for Safeguarding Angkor(JSA),the faces can be classified into three groups,Deva,Devata,and Asura,based on subjective criteria.We demonstrate a more objective way to classify the faces using measured 3D geometrical models created by a laser range sensor.
