Documenting of the Kanozero Petroglyphs:From Contact Methods to Photogrammetry

Photogrammetry emerges as a superior method for documenting the Kanozero petroglyphs, surpassing traditional contact techniques in precision and efficiency. This study demonstrates that photogrammetric methods enable high-resolution 3D reconstructions of petroglyphs, preserving intricate details without physical contact. The approach significantly reduces wear on fragile surfaces while providing scalable documentation for archaeological analysis. By comparing photogrammetry with conventional methods, the research highlights its advantages in accuracy, non-destructive data capture, and adaptability to diverse environmental conditions.
