EMERGENCY SURVEY OF REMOTE AND ENDANGERED ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES
Keywords: Close range photogrammetry, 3D reconstruction, emergency survey, archaeology
Abstract. The paper describes the survey activities of the late Roman archaeological site of Umm al-Dabadib (Egypt). The interesting casestudy can be taken as an example in case of emergency surveys, as this method allows the complete 3D acquisition of a vast and complex area in a very short time and with the aid of simple instruments.
