Bel Temple of Palmyra

3D Model

This work is one of the results of our Research about Photogrammetry and 3d reconstrution by Wissam Wahbeh and Stephan Nebiker in the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland FHNW http://www.fhnw.ch/habg/ivgi/ with the collaboration of Gabriele Fangi from the polytechnic university of the Marche in Italy. It exploits the potential of dense multi-image 3d reconstruction of destroyed cultural heritage monuments by either using public domain touristic imagery only or by combining them with professional panoramic imagery. The focus of our work is placed on the reconstruction of the lost heritage monuments. This model was created using images from Prof. Gabriele Fangi, The photographer Daniel Demeter, and public domain imagery. The work was presented in the ISPRS conference in Prague.
