Abstract
Abstract. The current paper is a part of the scientific category HBIM, with ground photography and photogrammetric processing. The photogrammetry is an important tool for recording, storing, promoting and documenting buildings. The purpose of the work is to construct a three-dimensional model of the Greek-Roman aqueduct of the city of Kavala, in northern Greece. First of all, the aqueduct has a very important historical and aesthetic value for the city, because it is a tourist attraction. Also, it is an urban physical boundary, which separates part of the old town from the new roads of the coastal front. Moreover, the methodology was based on photographic shots, then on photogrammetric processing with Zephyr software. The methodology of the 3D model had as a purpose the terrestrial photography in a rapid and effective way. The result, of the work is the presentation of the three-dimensional model of the aqueduct, the analysis of the methodological steps of photogrammetric processing and the analysis of the historical transformation of the aqueduct area by a medieval and modern coastal city. The advantages of photogrammetric documentation have a role in the storage of the three-dimensional form of the historical building and in the smart promotion of its historical, touristic, urban aspects.
Highlights
1.1 General InformationThe present work refers to the three-dimensional depiction of a important historical monument in the city of Kavala, Greece
Its location separates the city into the old town, which existed since the Ottoman Empire, and the modern – coastal town, which was created in the early 20th century
The chosen workflow tries to tackle the principal issues shared by the academic world with respect to 3D and HBIM models, e.g. the difficulty in reconstructing complex architectures without time-consuming processes, the reliability and high detail in the rendering of colours and textures, the insertion of detailed information for each element.” (Bertacchi, G.et al.2021)
Summary
The present work refers to the three-dimensional depiction of a important historical monument in the city of Kavala, Greece. The monument is a Greek – Roman aqueduct. This is an impressive example of architecture, a natural boundary of the city and a pole of attraction for tourists, residents, visitors. Its location separates the city into the old town, which existed since the Ottoman Empire, and the modern – coastal town, which was created in the early 20th century. In the old town there are narrow and alleys, traditional architecture in the buildings, quiet and slow rhythms in the walking route of the residents. The historical monument is distinguished; the coastal front of the city of Kavala, with the marina, the restaurants, the shops of local products
