Point cloud of Dover castle, UK. managed by English heritage.
‘The most iconic of all English fortresses commanding the gateway to the realm for nine centuries. Climb the Great Tower, meet the characters and immerse yourself in vivid medieval interiors. Then delve deep within Dover’s White Cliffs to witness the drama in the Secret Wartime Tunnels. Roam through centuries of history at Dover Castle, from the Romans to the Cold War, in an action-packed day out.’
Point cloud made with visualSFM and aerial pictures. Most of the coverage contains the background, including the city of Dover down the hill. Therefore the actual details from the castle is reduced. As other models, the purpose was to work with a non-ideal footage. Focus selected frame didn’t improve the result.
A mesh version was made with meshlab but some missing point (like the roof) don’t make a nice render. Would be nice to try with Pix4D though!
