Building 3D City model from painting: the case study of Old Town of Taranto, Italy

• Abstract:

  The aim of the work concerns the building of a three-dimensional model of the old town of Taranto (Italy) from a 1761 painting by English historian and geographer Thomas Salmon and published by Venetian printer Giambattista Albrizzi. To achieve this aim, a suitable and original methodology was developed. In addition, 3D modelling based on the use of Rhinoceros enabled the construction of a 3D city model. This model makes it possible to highlight the transformations and evolutions of the old town over time.
