Report on the “Benchmark” session – on the use of UAV images for 3D reconstruction: a joint experience among users” (held during the 61th SIFET Meeting, Lecce, Italy, June 8-10, 2016)

Abstract

This report addresses a new initiative planned under the 61th SIFET national meeting, held in Lecce, Italy, 6-10 June 2016. The
session named “benchmark” introduced results achieved by users in the processing of a shared dataset, composed of images acquired
from UAV, to reconstruct the three-dimensional properties of cultural heritage within a selected site. Processing strategies, results
and accuracies were compared during the session, highlighting also the best practice selected by the users in the image processing. A
better insight into results will be provided by successive technical reports by involved users.
