GEOVIZUALISATION OF STONE MATERIAL WEATHERING DATA FOR GEOARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES
Abstract
The continuous deterioration of historical stone monuments mainly due to weathering is a growing concern. Precise documentation of the monument becomes very important for elaboration of sustainable monument re medy and preservation plan. The method elaborated by the authors allows to create a 3D model of the object with the further possibility to supplement and integrate into this model various visual and data information and systematically update it. This method was developed for the stone material surface weathering studies of the Step Pyramid of Djoser in Egypt, but it also can be applied to the studies of other historical monuments.
