Application of 3D Laser Scanner in Surveying of Traditional Architecture: Case Study on Surveying Practice of Hangzhou Haichao Temple

Abstract:

As a burgeoning survey approach, 3D laser scanning is currently more and more applied in traditional architecture survey. In the surveying practice for Tianwang Hall of Hangzhou Haichao Temple, by skillfully setting the targets, we efficiently and accurately collected relevant surveying data with 3D laser scanner. On this basis, utilizing jointed point clouds on inner and outer surface, we successfully obtained wall thickness, roof depth, and other data that could not be precisely captured through traditional surveying measures. Moreover, the width, height and size of main beams were also easily and accurately acquired. So far, 3D laser scanning has become a very effective measure in traditional architecture surveying.
