Abstract:
Dry-stone elements represent an important aspect of rural identity, and by nature, their constructive and volumetric elements have been eclipsed by their characteristics. Current massive data capture techniques, including photogrammetry, can offer new analysis procedures that will improve existing management and cataloguing methods. Such methods must address those characteristics that make it difficult to parametrize the formal features. This investigation focuses on a simplification of point clouds used to obtain formal and dimensional characteristics of specific elements. The management of the data obtained through a massive capture allows an analysis of elements both two- and three-dimensionally. The proposed procedure is tested in a dry-stone domed typology located in the north-eastern of the Iberian Peninsula.
