Abstract
In recent years, the need for heritage preservation and reconstruction has become evident as many mature buildings face the risk of deterioration, damage or loss due to factors such as urban development, environmental weathering as well as outdated infrastructure. This urgency has created surges of significant interest to find sustainable methods of heritage preservation. The rise of emerging digital technologies has introduced a multitude of innovative methods for storing, analysing, and showcasing building data.
Technologies such as 3D LiDAR scanning, and Building Information Modelling enable detailed documentation and virtual exploration of heritage sites, while digital databases and archives facilitate the easy access and use of historical records. This project will attempt
to address a new method of heritage preservation by using Gaussian Splatting in conjunction with segmentation methods to create a visually accurate model while also incorporating semantic labels.
