The task of recording our physical heritage is of significant importance: our past cannot be divorced from the present and it plays an integral part in the shaping of our future. This applies not only to structures that are hundreds of years old, but relatively more recent architectural structures also require adequate documentation if they are to be preserved for future generations. In recording such structures, the traditional 2D methods are proving inadequate. It will be beneficial to conservationists, archaeologists, researchers, historians and students alike if accurate and extensive digital 3D models of archaeological structures can be generated. This thesis investigates a method of creating such models, using digital photogrammetry. Three different types of model were generated: 1. the simple CAD (Computer Aided Design) model; 2. an amalgamation of 3D line drawings; and 3. an accurate surface model of the building using DSMs (Digital Surface Models) and orthophotos. 2014-07-31T10:24:16Z 2014-07-31T10:24:16Z 2000 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4987 eng application/pdf Division of Geomatics Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
