Summary
A groundbreaking integration of SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology with UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) has revolutionized the documentation process for UNESCO World Heritage Sites, demonstrated through a case study in Santa Cruz de Mompox, Colombia. This innovative approach significantly accelerates data acquisition, enabling rapid, detailed topographic surveys even in complex urban landscapes. The experiment showcases how modern digital tools can streamline heritage documentation while preserving historical accuracy, offering a scalable model for future conservation efforts worldwide.
