As part of a Royal Irish Academy funded project on the Western Stone Forts of Ireland, Dr. James O’Driscoll, in collaboration with Hawkes Archaeological Consultancy and Aerial Eye Limited, Preview below
We have produced a number of three dimensional models that can be viewed in a web-browser (Google Chrome for better results) using the following links:
The ongoing project aims to create a complete suite of high resolution three dimensional models of the Western Stone Forts, with Phase 1 of the work focusing Western Stone Forts on the Tentative List of UNESCO World Heritage Sites that have not previously been surveyed. To achieve this we are using fixed wing and multi-rotor drone technology to capture high resolution vertical and oblique aerial photographs used to create three dimensional models using photogrammetry.
