3D model of the Uplistsikhe historical complex

In this demonstration we combine a 3D model of the historical complex Uplistsikhe (Georgia) with a series of panoramic photos taken at the same location, allowing users to seamlessly switch between both types of media. This provides the ability to visualize and navigate the entire territory in a format convenient for you. Change perspectives and easily switch between a "bird's eye view" and "ground-level photography" at the most important points to examine them in all the detail that panoramic photography of each area can offer.

The 3D model used in this tour was created using the method of photogrammetry. This means that a drone took many aerial photos from different angles over the entire complex, and as a result of comprehensive analysis, the software created all the geometry and applied textures to the photos themselves. This allows us to create a detailed and accurate virtual copy of the real object. On the other hand, panoramic photos were taken directly on-site in the most visible areas of the complex using 360º cameras.
