تعد النماذج ثلاثية الأبعاد للمواقع و المنشآت الأثرية ذات أهمية كبيرة في مجال علم الآثار و في مجال السياحة الرقمية, فهذه النماذج تساعد المختصين في علم الآثار على توثيق الموقع الأثري و تحليل العلاقات بين مكوناته. كما تعد عامل جذب سياحي يمكّن السياح من زيارة المواقع الأثرية و الاطلاع على التراث الثقافي عن بعد بشكل افتراضي. تهدف هذه الدراسة لاقتراح منهجية لاستخدام بعض إمكانيات نظم التصميم بمعونة الحاسب و نظم المعلومات الجغرافية في بناء قاعدة بيانات مكانية و دلالية للمواقع الأثرية و نمذجتها بالأبعاد الثلاثة. يمكن لمستخدمي هذه القاعدة الحصول على كل المعلومات التي تخص مكونات الموقع الأثري و الإبحار فيه بفضل توفر إمكانية توليد الحركيات Animations في نظم المعلومات الجغرافية. سيتم تطبيق هذه المنهجية على موقع رأس شمرا الأثري الواقع في محافظة اللاذقية. و هنا تم الحصول على البيانات المكانية الخاصة بالموقع من مخطط رفع طبوغرافي منجز في العام 2004 و إدخالها في بيئة نظم المعلومات الجغرافية بعد معالجتها. ثم سيتم استخدام إمكانيات برنامج نظم المعلومات الجغرافية ArcGIS من أجل إنجاز نظام المعلومات الآثاري للموقع و نمذجته مع القصر الملكي بالأبعاد الثلاثة.
3D models of historical sites and monuments are very interesting in archaeology and digital tourism fields. These models help archeologists document historical sites and analyze the relationships between their components. Moreover, 3D models constitute an attractive factor that encourages visiting sites and presents virtual information about cultural heritage. In this paper, we propose an approach that uses capabilities of CAD (Computer Aided Design) and GIS (Geographic Information System) systems to construct spatial and semantic database for historical sites and modeling them in 3D. Users of the mentioned database can use it to gather information about sites and to navigate across them via the animation capabilities in GIS. The proposed ideas will be applied on the historical site of Ras-SHAMRA in Lattakia. Spatial data concerning the site will be acquired form a topographic plan designed in 2004. These data will then be processed and introduced into GIS environment. ArcGIS software will be used to achieve an Archeological Information System (AIS) for the site and to construct a 3D model of the site and the royal palace.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) present one of the most important 3D modeling techniques of cities, which has become a very important and necessary for representing of contemporary cities, and doing different analyses, with the aim of finding so
lutions to the problems raised through a virtual model of reality. In addition, 3D GIS play an important role in urban planning. Despite the presence of a large number of programs capable of dealing with 3D objects, many of these applications require high technologies and advanced tools for the representation and analysis of 3D objects. The objects of 3D models represented in GIS can be associated with a set of queryable attributes, and this is not available in other 3D modeling software. This Research aims to highlight the importance of procedural 3D modeling of cities in GIS environment using ESRI CityEngine. A set of CGA (computer generated architecture) rules - programmed by procedural modeling language in CityEngine- will be presented to generate realistic 3D models that can represent all elements of cities and its infrastructure. Then, all the objects will be exported to a Web Scene viewer, which allows the creation a comprehensive platform to present a system to support decision-making, and facilitate project management related to the management of cities. The research methods will be applied to Tartous governorate through designing and modeling of proposed residential area. This study will include CGA rules applied to create a 3D model of proposed area, it will show the importance of GIS in modeling and representation of cities.
The production of 3D models of urban areas, using aerial photographs, is of great benefit to companies and small engineering offices. But the major problem is the high cost of Digital Photogrammetry Workstations (DPWS) that are currently used for the
production of this kind of models. In addition, the use of these workstations requires long experience and good knowledge in photogrammetry. In this paper, we propose an alternative solution for 3D modeling of urban areas from a stereoscopic pair of aerial photos, a low cost close range photogrammetry software and the applications of 3D modeling available in some Geographic Information System (GIS) platforms. The close range photogrammetry software is a low coast system, compared to DPWS, and it doesn’t require any spatial background in photogrammetry. This software is used to extract the heights of elements that exist in the study area. GIS is used to produce the 2D map from the aerial photo. This map and the height data are used later to produce the 3D model of the study area.
During the past few years, new developments have occurred in the field of 3D photogrammetric modeling of historical monuments. One of these developments is the expansion of 3D photogrammetric modeling cost-effective licensed software, such as Agisoft
Metashape, into the practical and affordable world. This type of SfM (Structure from Motion) software offers the world of 3D modelling of cultural heritage a powerful tool for documentation and visualization. This paper presents a methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of a range of commercial SfM photogrammetry systems when applied in the 3D modeling of historical monuments. The monument to which these systems were applied is the principal façade of Safita Tower, a medieval structure in Safita, north-western Syria.. The applied photogrammetric systems consist of the Nikon Coolpix P100 10 MP digital camera, the commercial software Agisoft Metashape, 3DF Zephyr Aerial and Pix4D Mapper. The resulted 3D point clouds were compared with an available dense point cloud acquired by a laser scanner. This comparison proved that the low-cost SfM photogrammetry is an accurate methodology to 3D modeling historical monuments.
In close range photogrammetry, the required geometric data for object documentation can be obtained
from single photo or stereoscopic pairs of photos. But, the documentation of large historic monuments, the
stereo pair is not sufficient. So, we mus
t use many photos to cover the whole object. In this study, a new
approach for 3D modeling of historic monuments is presented. This one is the multi-images approach. It
takes the complicated geometric nature of object to be documented. This kind of modeling is one of most
important applications of close range photogrammetry. In this study the results the multi-images
approach is exposed by a practical example concerned a historic façade in Housn Souleman (Safita). We
used digital photos obtained by the digital camera Kodak 8MP. This camera has a good geometric
resolution suitable for precise documentation works. To achieve the modeling, some well known software
for documentation purposes were used.
This research highlights the vital role of Pavement Management Systems integrated with Geographic Information Systems in planning and managing road maintenance in Lattakia, and getting a flexible local system by following a new method in processing a
nd viewing information that supports maintenance decision.
This study included applying a pilot project for managing pavement maintenance over a group of roads following The General Establishment for Road Communications. Those roads were divided to links and segments then evaluated using the " Asphalt Institute Method ", which gave us a numeric pointer that led in turn to the type of maintenance needed for a particular pavement. In this research, we depended on the Geographic Information Systems to design and build a comprehensive database, that reflected the present condition of the studied roads, and enabled us to store, analyze and document pavement surface condition and link it to the digitized maps of the studied roads. This guaranteed easy and direct access to various kinds of data and solutions as every segment appeared in a different color reflecting its conditions according to the theme of the map. By doing so, we could support the process of taking right maintenance decisions.
