Laser Scanning Projects in Turkey Presented with NUBIGON
NUBIGON plays a vital role in preserving Turkey’s rich historical heritage and industrial sites by transforming detailed laser scans into vivid visualizations. NUBIGON helps popularize documentation efforts, ensuring the maintenance and preservation of these sites.
Laser Scanning Ancient Aqueducts
Hasan Bora Yavuz documented the remnants of a 4th-century B.C. Hellenistic aqueduct using Leica RTC360 laser scanners to capture its current state, threatened by encroaching vegetation and wild olive trees. NUBIGON rendered the point cloud data into a detailed visualization, providing an invaluable tool for preservation efforts and public awareness of this ancient structure’s condition.

Laser Scanning the Gumusler Monastery
The Gumusler Monastery, a rock-carved site from the 8th century adorned with beautiful wall paintings, was meticulously scanned to aid in its preservation and restoration. NUBIGON transformed the captured data into a comprehensive visual representation, helping experts assess the site’s condition and precision plan the necessary restoration efforts.

Laser Scanning a Historic Turkish Bath
This early 18th-century Turkish Bath was scanned using Leica C10 to preserve its intricate wall mosaics and marble basin plates. NUBIGON was instrumental in converting the detailed scans into floor, ceiling, and elevation plans, making it easier for preservationists to understand and document the site’s architectural elements.

Laser Scanning Industrial Storage Tanks
During one of their storage tank inspections, Gizil captured billions of data points with an impressive resolution of less than 2mm, ensuring every detail was meticulously recorded. To communicate these results effectively, Gizil used NUBIGON to transform the point cloud into a visually compelling presentation. This visualization made the complex data easier to interpret and highlighted the project’s precision and thoroughness.

Hi-Res Orthophotos from Point Clouds
Fimap utilizes NUBIGON to create ultra-high-resolution orthophotos from historic site scans in Turkey, including the renowned Hagia Sophia. These detailed visuals are essential for documentation, restoration, and preservation efforts. The video below showcases a sample of orthophotos, demonstrating how NUBIGON’s rendering output contributes to these efforts.
