Cameras. Calibration. Field work. 3x3 rules. Photogrammetric grid design.
Special camera support devices.
Results. Discrete point models and high point density clouds. Precision and accuracy. Evaluation of the metric and visual quality of the final model.
Photogrammetric software. Visualization software.
Fields of application in cultural heritage. Case studies.

Basic skills
CB7 - The students should know how to apply the acquired knowledge and their ability to solve problems in new or little-known environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their area of study.
General skills
CB1 - Ability to efficiently manage information from different sources for the production of cultural knowledge.
CB4 - Acquisition of skills and work habits that enable self-learning and promote continuous training (education throughout life, according to UNESCO guidelines) .
Specific skills
CE1 - Knowledge of the operation of new ways of transmitting information, accessing it and acquiring it.
CE19 - Knowledge of research methodology and practice in all areas related to the management of cultural assets.
This subject is affected by the process of extinction of the degree offer. For this reason, only students who have already done so in previous years can enrol in this subject, having the right to tutoring and assessment but not to classroom teaching.
The teaching methodology will therefore be tutorial in nature. Throughout the course, students enrolled may and must arrange tutorial sessions with the teacher to clarify any aspect of the subject and its assessment.
1st OPPORTUNITY: In this process of extinction of the offer of the degree, the evaluation will be made exclusively through the grade obtained in the final exam, in which the acquisition of the contents and competences of the subject will be assessed and will take place on the date established by the Secretary's Office of the Faculty.
2nd OPPORTUNITY: In this process of extinction of the degree offer, the evaluation will be made exclusively through the grade obtained in the final exam, in which the acquisition of the contents and competences of the subject will be assessed and will take place on the date established by the Secretary's Office of the Faculty.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the "Regulations on the assessment of student academic performance and review of qualifications" shall apply.
Face-to-face activity: presentation of basic content and practical classes: 7 hours
Face-to-face activity: tutoring to guide theoretical-methodological topics: 5 hours
Face-to-face activity: evaluation activities: 3 hours
Total hours of classroom work: 15 hours
Student's personal work:
Virtual learning and personal study: 40 hours
Preparation of works: 14 hours
Preparation of the final exam: 6 hours
Total hours of the student's personal work: 60 hours
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the "Normativa de avaliación do rendemento académico dos estudantes e de revisión das cualificacións" "(artigo 16 da Resolución de 15/6/2011 da USC, DOG de 21/7/2011)" will apply.
