3D Digitization of Architectural Heritage: Habana Vieja in Cuba – Approaching H-BIM

The project’s principal intention is the developing of structure from motion thematic applied to architecture field in medium and large scale, in order to generate a cloud of points, obtained thanks to a photographic footage, which can later be used during the H-BIM process. The matter of 3D digitalization is nowadays a very current issue for many countries including Cuba. Indeed, the growth of such a technology application for tridimensional restitution of historical buildings it’s here treated by giving special attention on those belonging to Havana’s architectural and cultural heritage. The first chapter means to present which are the methodologies employed to get tridimensional models through photographic shoots, and how those models would subsequently be taken as fundamentals to generate H-BIM integrated models.
