International experience in the application of three-dimensional modeling for the preservation of cultural heritage

Abstract

Modern digital technologies play a key role in the preservation of cultural heritage, providing new opportunities for its study and documentation. One of the most promising methods is three-dimensional modeling, which makes it possible to create accurate digital cop­ies of historical objects. The purpose of this study is to analyze international practices of im­plementing 3D modeling in the field of preservation of architectural and archaeological mon­uments. Methods of laser scanning, photogrammetry, and hyperspectral analysis are exam­ined, along with their advantages and limitations. Particular attention is given to examples of successful international projects, such as CyArk and Flyover Zone, which demonstrate the effectiveness of 3D modeling in the preservation and popularization of cultural assets. The main conclusions of the study concern the prospects for the development of digital methods of heritage preservation, their integration into global practice, and the need for further interdis­ciplinary cooperation.
