“…The use of the 3D technologies allows to acquire the morphological data of the artifacts surface, documenting the state of conservation in that time and favoring the digital reproduction of the work of arts on different communication tools. It is clear enough the great potentiality of the 3D applications in the conservation field (Neumüeller, 2014). This relative low cost technology allows to work with high scientific and rigorous approach, with a great saving of the production times and costs.…”

ABSTRACT:The research focuses on the contribution of the integrated application of Computer Aided Restoration digital procedures as a means to guide the integration measure of an artifact, innovating and implementing the traditional investigation methods. The aim of the study was to provide effective geometrical-formal investigation tools in the frame of the conservation work of Zeus enthroned from Soluntum, conserved in the Archaeological Museum "A. Salinas" of Palermo. The paper describes the workflow of the 3D acquisition and graphical modeling with non-invasive digitalization and high information density techniques to assist the conservation of the legs of the throne, especially the integration of the missing part. Thanks to the technique of the digital fabrication it has been reconstruct the two missing parts following the theoretical criteria as: recognisability, compatibility and retractability. This innovative application of 3D digital technologies have showed as the integrated use of the new technology can be a useful tools for improving the conservation of a work of art.

“…In particular, we experienced many interdisciplinary projects in which, thanks to the cooperation of different fields of research, incredible results have been obtained, through the technological collaboration of computer graphics, industrial engineering and experts in documentation, preservation and access of CH. Particular attention should be paid to the actual technologies in use for solid printing (digital fabrication) used for the realization of material copies, thus tangible, of three-dimensional digital virtual models (for more examples the reader is referred to Scopigno et al, 2015;Neumüller et al, 2014;Tucci et al, 2011;Balletti et al, 2016;.…”

ABSTRACT:GAMHer is a collaborative project that aims at exploiting and validating Geomatics algorithms, methodologies and procedures in the framework of new European regulations, which require a more extensive and productive use of digital information, as requested by the Digital Agenda for Europe as one of the seven pillars of the Europe 2020 Strategy. To this aim, GAMHer focuses on the need of a certified accuracy for surveying and monitoring projects with photogrammetry and laser scanning technologies, especially when used in a multiscale approach for landscape and built heritage documentation, conservation, and management. The approach used follows a multi-LoD (level of detail) transition that exploits GIS systems at the landscape scale, BIM technology and "point cloud based" 3d modelling for the scale of the building, and an innovative BIM/GIS integrated approach to foster innovation, promote users' collaboration and encourage communication between users. The outcomes of GAMHer are not intended to be used only by a community of Geomatics specialists, but also by a heterogeneous user community that exploit images and laser scans in their professional activities.

“…The 3D digital model was printed in different scales to check if the quality of the model was sufficient. Moreover the model printed at the reduced scale 1:5 demonstrates the feasibility of a new market that can be linked to cultural heritage (Neumuller et al, 2014), instead the detail printed in scale 1:1 shows the achievable richest detail and that the model can be used in 1:1 reproduction for museums or temporary exhibitions. In this article, after an historical-artistic introduction on the terracotta bust, there is a description of the methods and tools used in the digitization stage.…”

“…As we can see in literature or in several web sites, the experiences of replicas of objects, which are exhibited in museums as faithful copies of the original or reconstructions or to set up museum tours for the blinds, are growing (Neumuller et al 2014;D'agnano et al 2015). Contrary to CNC machines (Computer Numerical Control), working with subsequent subtraction of material from a block in which is "contained" the shape you want to get, the new Rapid Prototyping systems, generally 3D printer, manufacture successive layers of material (additive manufacturing).…”

Commission VI, WG VI/4KEY WORDS: Cultural Heritage documentation, statues digitalization, triangulation range sensors, photogrammetry, dense image matching, modelling, 3D printing. ABSTRACT:Geomatics technics and methods are now able to provide a great contribution to the Cultural Heritage (CH) processes, being adaptable to different purposes: management, diagnosis, restoration, protection, study and research, communication, formation and fruition of the Cultural Heritage. This experimentation was done with an eye to encouraging and promoting the development of principles and good practices for recording, documentation and information management of cultural heritage This research focuses on the documentation path of a cultural asset, in particular a Renaissance statue, aimed to achieve a three dimensional model useful for many digital applications and for solid reproduction. The digital copy can be used in many contexts and represents an efficient tool to preserve and promote CH. It can be included in virtual museum archives and catalogues, shared on network with cultural operators and users, and it permits the contextualization of the asset in its artistic and historical background. Moreover, the possibility to obtain a hard copy, reproduced through 3D printing, allows to reach new opportunities of interaction with CH. In this article, two techniques for the digitization of the terracotta bust of Francesco II Gonzaga, in the City Museum of Mantua, are described: the triangulation scanner and dense image matching photogrammetry. As well as the description of the acquisition and the elaborations, other aspects are taken into account: the characteristics of the object, the place for the acquisition, the ultimate goal and the economic availability. There are also highlighted the optimization pipeline to get the correct three-dimensional models and a 3D printed copy. A separate section discusses the comparison of the realized model to identify the positive and negative aspects of each adopted application.
