More than a picture: Experiments in Terrestrial Lidar documentation in archaeological and architectural management at Texas Army National Guard

Summary

Texas Army National Guard is responsible for management of archaeological and historical buildings at several locations across the state. In order to more effectively integrate preservation concerns into the many internal systems of the Guard's organization, the Cultural Resources team has been reaching out to other departments for expertise and access to technology. This poster summarizes the efforts to utilize terrestrial LiDar not only for detailed documentation of historic properties, but as part of a longer view plan of tracking structural conditions and changes.
