Merging photogrammetry and 3D laser scans: The entire team is working on merging the drone-captured aerial survey with the point cloud data from the 3D laser scans inside the mausoleum. This delicate process requires carefully integrating scans from different technologies. The outcome will provide the first reliable measurements of the thickness of the double-shell domes. #iraniandomes #soltaniyeh #sbu #unibo #domes #iran #architecture #MSCA

Back in December 2016 is when Dr. Vigotti and Prof. Safaeipour met for the first time. In fact, following a number of explorations in Iran, Vigotti led a mission of multidisciplinary scholars from the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence, including Director Alessandro Nova, focusing on medieval and early modern monuments and double-shell brick domes (Seljuck, Ilkhanid, and Safavid periods). #iraniandomes #iran #architecture #soltaniyeh #khi #msca
