3D Model Based on Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) Case study: The Cangkuang Temple, Garut District, West Java, Indonesia

Abstract

Abstract. The subject of the investigation reported in this paper is the visualization of three-dimensional (3D) surface models in a 3D mapping survey using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS). The Cangkuang Temple nearby Garut City was chosen as the object. The laser technology instruments used were a Topcon GLS-1000 (Geodetic Laser Scanner) and a Topcon IS (Image Station). Twelve points at the same position in each 3D surface model were selected. The coordinate system of the IS was then transformed into the coordinate system of the GLS-1000 using a 3D similarity transformation model. The 3D distances were calculated for each model. Differences in distance were considered as errors in the x, y, and z direction. The standard deviation of the distance differences was ±0.301 m. Some of the distance differences did not fall within the range of tolerances (about 15%). The 3D surface model visualization of the Cangkuang Temple that was created from the GLS-1000 data was more precise than the one created from the IS data. In the future, such 3D surface model visualizations could be used for documentation, preservation and reconstruction of heritage buildings.

Application of Territorial Laser Scanning in 3D Modeling of Traditional Village: A Case Study of Fenghuang Village in China

“…Inspired by previous research on TLS and cultural heritage [29], the workflow of TLS and 3D modeling in this paper is divided into two sections, external and internal operations (Figure 2), further developed into five steps, including designing the scanning scheme, obtaining site data, and processing point clouds (registration, denoising, and feature extraction). Finally, the built models are applied to compare the historical buildings in the village from four aspects: layout, height, decorations, and roof slope.…”
