Machu Picchu, Peru

Three datasets are available for Machu Picchu, Peru. Visit the Project details page for more information.

MP_entiresite.pwk represents the complete Machu Picchu data set consisting of 8 merged scans. The data were acquired over a period of four nights (not days) at a 3cm resolution resulting in a collection of over 50 million data points. For viewing purposes, the data have been reduced here to 8 million points.
This particular data set really gives the user a feel of what it is like to“be” at Machu Picchu.

Tiwanaku, Bolivia

Four datasets are available for Tiwanaku, Bolivia. Visit the Project details page for more information.

The scans of the Templeté are available here in two formats 1) as the original point cloud and 2) as a polygonal mesh file. During the creation of a mesh,
the data are moderately smoothed therefore causing some data loss. However the overall file size is considerably reduced resulting in a quicker download for the polygonal mesh file. For original data results, please refer to the Tiw_ Templeté_pntcloud.pwk file.
The Templeté (aka the Semi-Subterranean Temple) is unique from all of the other structures at Tiwanaku due to a series of carved stone faces or heads that line its walls. The structure was scanned at a 1cm resolution resulting in a collection of 4 million data points in the original point cloud file. A total of 8 scans were collected of the Templeté. The mesh file of this structure contains 1.4 million points and 2.7 million triangles.

Tiw_Templete_closeup_high.pwk is a high resolution (2 mm) scan of the southern wall of the Templeté. A 2mm scan was conducted in attempt to discern the detailed features of the stone faces that line the walls of the structure. Upon close inspection, the user can pick out the individual stone faces. This is especially noticeable when viewing the intensity returns of the data! This data set contains 2.3 million points.

Tiw_Kal_polymesh.pwk is a polygonal mesh of the Kalasasaya monument at Tiwanaku. In this data, you can discern the individual stones that comprise
the Kalasasaya. The Kalasasaya is one of the largest structures at Tiwanaku covering an area of ~15,000 sq. meters. It was scanned over a period of 4 days
at a 3cm resolution resulting in a collection of 112 scans. The polygonal mesh file contains ~ 1million data points and ~2 million triangles. A ground
surface has been added to the model for visual purposes.
