Abstract

This chapter focuses on the uses of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for documenting and monitoring cultural heritage and archaeological sites. High-resolution aerial imagery from UAVs also allows the rapid generation of 3D digital surface models for documentation and model reconstruction in a variety of applications. This chapter provides various examples of cultural heritage and archaeological sites in Cyprus that have been documented with high-resolution cameras aboard UAVs. Photogrammetry is also used to create 3D models of the site, which can also be printed using a digital printer.
