Archaeology studies the material remains of past societies, such as dwellings, buildings, tombs, objects and waste. We work with teams of archaeologists, providing the basis for research projects with leading companies in Catalonia, using classical instruments, photogrammetry and laser scanning.

Photogrammetry is a fundamental technique in the field of archaeology and the conservation of cultural heritage.

Applications of photogrammetry in archeology and heritage

Documentation and conservation of archaeological sites

Reproduction and restoration of heritage elements

Dissemination and public access to heritage

Technology used in photogrammetry for archaeology and heritage

Drones and 3D scanners

This process allows the creation of high-precision orthophotos, which are crucial for the detailed documentation of large structures or sites.

Analysis and processing software

These tools include the ability to measure, analyze, and document every aspect of an archaeological site or object with a precision that was previously unthinkable with traditional methods.

Benefits of Photogrammetry in Archaeological and Heritage Projects

Precision and detail: Photogrammetry provides an accurate representation of the current state of sites and objects, being a key tool for detailed analysis and decision-making in conservation projects.

Preventive conservation: Digital records generated with photogrammetry allow changes in archaeological sites or heritage elements to be monitored, helping to detect and prevent deterioration before it becomes irreversible.

Cost - effectiveness: Compared to other traditional documentation methods, photogrammetry is faster and can cover larger areas in less time, reducing the costs associated with documentation and conservation.

Photogrammetry and how it is applied in archaeology

Photogrammetry is a technique that uses photographs to create three-dimensional models precise descriptions of objects or structures. In archaeology, used to document sites and objects, capturing every detail with a precision that allows for better analysis and preservation.

What our customers think

A coworker at Altiplà recommended him to us and he is now one of our collaborators. Efficient, fast and decisive.

Almu Perez

He has been very friendly and professional. He has advised us on a problem with some neighbors and his opinion has been very helpful. Very decisive and effective.

Jordi Miralles

Good professionals with extensive experience. We have been working with them for years and now we have decided to try the point cloud... a good tool to avoid having to be on site all day and have the measurements at hand.

Marta Costa

The best surveyors in Barcelona without a doubt. They understand the needs of architects and help prevent cost overruns with the precision of their work.

Ivan Serrano

Very professional people, total involvement in their work. I would recommend this company for the quality, speed and empathy with which they deal with their customers.

Do you have any questions?

Photogrammetry is faster and offers superior accuracy, allowing the creation of 3D models that are more detailed and can be used for studies and restorations with a high level of fidelity to reality.

Drones and 3D scanners complement photogrammetry by capturing images and data of places or objects from multiple angles and distances, allowing the creation of highly accurate and detailed digital models.

Yes, photogrammetry allows you to create exact replicas of pieces (digital twins), which is very useful for the restoration of damaged objects, ensuring that the reconstruction is faithful to the original.

Photogrammetry creates detailed and accurate records of cultural heritage, which can be used for monitoring, restoration and dissemination, helping to preserve it for future generations.
