Summary
A groundbreaking study has achieved the exhaustive graphic documentation of the Torre del Negro or Arráez, a 16th-century post-coastal tower located in El Algar, Cartagena (Region of Murcia, Spain). This work, employing digital photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning, provides unprecedented insights into the tower's construction and current state of conservation. The research contributes significantly to the understanding, consolidation, and volumetric recomposition of this heritage site, which is threatened by structural instability and lack of cover. By integrating historical monument analysis with advanced survey techniques, the study aims to enhance the preservation of the Torre del Negro while promoting its integration into its natural and landscape environment.
