Abstract

In the last decade, visual 3D object surface reconstruction has been increasingly applied in the fields of cultural heritage preservation and archaeology. In this paper, we present a variety of state-of-the-art algorithms and commercial software used in 3D reconstruction and employ one of them for generating 3D monument surface models of some of the most popular Paleochristian and Byzantine monuments located in Thessaloniki, Greece.
