Over the last years, terrestrial 3D modeling has become a very

important topic in many geomatic applications.

The continuous development and improvement of new sensors, data
capture methodologies, processing algorithms, multi-resolution 3D
representations are contributing significantly to the entire 3D
modeling pipeline applied to monitoring, mapping, visualization,
documentation, conservation, presentation, restoration, etc. 3D
surveying and modeling of scenes or objects should be understood
as the entire procedure that starts with the data acquisition,
geometric and radiometric data processing, 3D content generation
and digital model visualization. Reality-based surveying techniques
(e.g. photogrammetry, laser scanning, etc.) employ hardware and
software to metrically survey the reality as it is, recording in 3D the
actual visible situation of a site by means of images, range-data,
CAD drawing and maps, classical surveying (GNSS, total station, etc.) or an integration of the
aforementioned techniques. Other common approaches in terrestrial 3D modeling application are
instead based on computer graphics methods or procedural modeling and they allow the generation
of 3D data without any metric survey as input or knowledge of the scene. Each technique and
approach has advantages and disadvantages and the correct selection is very important and strictly
related to the project requirements, budget and user's experience. The great diversity of terrestrial
applications makes 3D modeling in this sector a very challenging and interesting work with still many
open issues and unsolved problems.
This theme issue seeks research as well as review contributions covering either specific aspects or
the full processing pipeline for monitoring, recording, documentation and visualization of sites and
objects using terrestrial data acquisition. The emphasis is on automated techniques, which are able to
enhance or speed up traditional surveying techniques. Methods and approaches which are capable of
handling the large data volume typical for today's sensors are of particular interest. We also
encourage submission of work that demonstrates the potential use of terrestrial models in areas such
as facility management, engineering, urban management, museums and others.
