- Abstract
- Over the past decade, we have witnessed an increase in the use of technology, through the creation of virtual itineraries and exhibitions, as a tool to guarantee and increase the usability of museums and more generally of artistic and historical works. In fact, it often happens that many works of art and artefacts of archaeological and cultural importance are not accessible to the public, either because they are kept in museum deposits or because they are difficult to access. In a context such as the current one, however, with an ongoing pandemic that forces most of the population to remain at home, the virtualization of museums, and historical and cultural heritage, becomes the main tool for exploring and enhancing culture. Among the various methodologies used for the creation of three-dimensional models, photogrammetry stands out for ease of use and low cost. This article analyses the use of photogrammetry in 3D modelling, focusing on pros and cons as a rapid, low-cost tool, which makes artworks virtually accessible to the public via museum websites and social network forums.
