Summary
Smartphone cameras can provide reliable metric data for architectural analysis and deterioration mapping of historic buildings. This study, focusing on the façade of a church within Rome's Historic Centre, demonstrates that mobile phone imaging is a viable tool for architects and restorers due to its portability, ease of use, and technological advancements. The research employed digital image processing techniques to assess the reliability of data acquired from smartphone images, addressing key questions about their suitability for analysis and representation in the built environment.
