Summary: | In this work some Unmanned Aerial Systems applications are discussed and applied to archaeological sites survey and 3D model
reconstructions. Interesting results are shown for three important and different aged sites on north Sardinia (Italy). An easy and
simplified procedure has proposed permitting the adoption of multi-rotor aircrafts for daily archaeological survey during excavation
and documentation, involving state of art in UAS design, flight control systems, high definition sensor cameras and innovative
photogrammetric software tools. Very high quality 3D models results are shown and discussed and how they have been simplified
the archaeologist work and decisions. |
