Haenam Maengjin-ri Petroglyph Maehyangbi Stele Precision 3D Scan

JANGSUNG HDS is located in Maengjin-ri, Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do Performed a precision 3D Scanning of the Haenam Maengjin-ri Rock-carved Maehangbi to record the overall shape of the rock and the inscriptions carved on its surface as three-dimensional data.Done.

This project was carried out as part of the cultural heritage conservation treatment process to precisely record the current state of the Maehangbi monument and utilize it for future conservation and research. Establishment of 3D digital data for cultural heritagewas conducted for the purpose of.

3D recording of the overall shape and inscription of the rock-carved Maehangbi monument

Maehyangbi are cultural heritage items that record the time and place of the Maehyang ritual, as well as the individuals or groups involved, and remain in the form of letters engraved on gravestones or natural rock faces.

Because the Maengjin-ri Maehyang Rock Carving in Haenam has inscriptions engraved on the surface of natural rock, rather than just being a general flat record, Recording the three-dimensional shape of the rock itself along with the depth and form of the characters engraved on its surfaceThis is important.

Considering these characteristics, JANGSUNG HDS performed two 3D scanning tasks for different purposes.

  • Recording of overall rock shape and surrounding topography using broadband 3D scanning
  • Recording of detailed shapes of petroglyph inscriptions using a precision 3D scanner

From the overall shape of the rock where the Maehyangbi stele is located to the fine details of the characters carved on its surface Build 3D data of different scalesDone.

High-precision 3D scanning for petroglyphs and inscriptions

The inscriptions on stone cultural heritage exposed to external environments for a long period of time may gradually become unclear in shape due to weathering and wear.

While photography is useful for visually documenting the current state of cultural heritage, it has limitations in recording the fine surface relief or the depth of carved inscriptions as quantitative three-dimensional shapes.

High-precision 3D scanning acquires the fine surface topography of petroglyphs as three-dimensional coordinate data.Because it is possible, the current state of cultural heritage can be recorded in a way different from the naked eye or ordinary photographs.

Especially for cultural heritage artifacts with shallow inscription strokes or advanced surface weathering, securing precise 3D data can serve as an important baseline for future research and preservation.

Preserving the current state of stone cultural heritage as digital data

The 3D Scanning data built through this project can be utilized for the following purposes.

  • Recording of the entire 3D shape of the Maehangbi rock
  • recording of the detailed surface topography of petroglyph inscriptions
  • Point Cloud-based precise surveying of cultural heritage
  • Digital archiving of petroglyphs and inscriptions
  • Basic data for the preservation and restoration of cultural heritage
  • Comparison of weathering and shape changes through future re-scans
  • Utilization of research and cultural heritage archival materials

Precise 3D scanning of monuments, rock inscriptions, and stone cultural heritage

Like the Haenam Maengjin-ri rock-carved Maehyangbi project, JANGSUNG HDS Apply broadband 3D scanning, which records the entire target, and high-precision 3D scanning, which acquires detailed surfaces, depending on the purpose.to build 3D shape information of cultural heritage.
