Abstract

Abstract:
The method of the close-range photogrammetry can be used not only in one monument, but also in monumental groups and façades in streets. By using this method, the façade rehabilitation of streets can be documented accurately and reliably and also the whole façades of streets can be analysed completely. In this paper, the façade rehabilitation of Historical Menguc Street in Konya by using close-range photogrammetry is studied and according to acquired results, the advantages and disadvantages of this method will be explained. In architecture, an accurate documentation for preserving cultural heritage can be obtained by using developing techniques. Nowadays there have been many developments in documentation of cultural heritage by developing technology. Modern methods including modern materials, new software and measurement techniques are generally preferred to the methods of conventional documentation in architecture. Among these modern methods, one of the most important is using the methods of close-range photogrammetry together with digital measurement tools. In recent years, photogrammetry techniques have also been used commonly in surveying historical buildings and their deformations, and providing data for conservation projects in architecture.
The 3D-vectoral data of the object digitized with the close-range photogrammetry, its surface images, its animation and 2D-orthophoto images could be taken in a scaled form. This technique also helps to produce documentation and preservation of historical heritage, and also provides an opportunity for its comparable evaluation between the present and future conditions. The advantages of the close-range photogrammetry are to provide a accurate documentation of historic materials and preservation of cultural heritage by three-dimensional (3D) digitization, and also making the required measurements on surveyed elements continually.
