Seodaemun Prison History Hall 3D Scan Project

JANGSUNG HDS has high historical value A project to perform a 3D Scanning of the Seodaemun Prison History Hall to record the shapes of its buildings and spaces as three-dimensional digital datawas performed.

Seodaemun Prison History Hall is a historic building that was used as a prison for about 80 years from 1908 to 1987. During the Japanese colonial period, numerous independence activists were imprisoned here, making it an important historical site in modern and contemporary South Korean history.

On November 5, 1998, Seodaemun Prison History Hallopened in and is currently utilized as a space to preserve historical sites and pass them on to future generations.

Recording the current state of historical buildings as 3D data

Cultural heritage and historical buildings can deteriorate, deform, or be damaged over time, making it important to accurately record their actual shapes and spatial information at a specific point in time.

3D scanning captures the surfaces and structures of buildings in large quantities of Point Cloud It can be used to preserve in 3D the shapes of complex spaces and buildings that can be captured as data, making them difficult to record with only existing photographs or 2D drawings.

JANGSUNG HDS at the Seodaemun Prison site Acquire the actual shape and spatial information of a building through 3D laser scanning and record it as digital dataDone.

Utilizing 3D Scanning for Cultural Heritage Preservation

Data built through cultural heritage 3D scanning can be utilized for various purposes in the future, as well as serving as simple visual materials.

• 3D digital documentation of historical architecture
• Preservation of the current condition and form of the building
• Point Cloud-based Spatial Information Construction
• Comparison between existing drawings and actual site conditions
• Basic data for conservation and restoration work
• Comparison of architectural deformation and changes
• Source materials for building 3D models and digital archives

Especially once cultural heritage is damaged or its original form is altered, it can be difficult to accurately verify its past state. Therefore, Using 3D scanning to record the current state as precise digital data holds significant meaning in terms of the preservation and management of cultural heritage.has.

Preservation of Seodaemun Prison History Hall as 3D digital data

For buildings with great historical significance, such as the Seodaemun Prison, not only the exterior, but also the interior space, structure, and positional relationships of each facility can become important archival materials.

Using 3D scanning, the actual site Point Cloud data with 3D coordinatesBecause it can be built with , it is also possible to check the distance and shape of a specific location as needed, and scan the same place again in the future to compare changes over time.

JANGSUNG HDS, as well as industrial plants and large facilities, 3D scanning and digital recording project for cultural heritage and historic buildingsWe are applying Edo 3D laser scanning technology.

of cultural properties, historical buildings, modern architecture, and facilities requiring preservation 3D scanning, point cloud creation, or 3D digital recordingPlease contact JANGSUNG HDS if this is needed.
