The Integrated Survey of the Pergamum by Nicola Pisano in the Cathedral of Pisa

The paper deals with the methodologies and development of digital survey protocols and uses the Pulpit of the Cathedral of Pisa as the case study. The documentation project of the pergamum has forced to face the morphological complexity of this sculptured architecture: the wealth of decorations, sculptures, panels, columns and caryatids, which make the monument unique, likewise increase the complexity of reproducing a 3D model that de-scribes its morphological and material characteristics. A first database of point clouds had already been made in the past years [1]; these measurements were made using a terrestrial laser scanner Z + F 5010C with integrated camera: these measurements were made with a Z+F 5010C terrestrial laser scanner with an integrated camera, performing 15 high-resolution scans around the pergamum. The result obtained however was not excellent: the limit of this model is the lack of shooting points at different altitudes, which led to have the pulpit described in its main dimensions; how-ever the static nature of the instrument has created a cloud of points with numerous areas of shade, especially in the portions at the top of the monument, which do not allow to appreciate its sculptural qualities. Recently, the problem
