Dronument

Aerial Autonomy for Documentation of Historical Monuments

   The official project site in the Czech language: dronument.cz


Documenting structural and cultural artifacts within the interiors of historical buildings is a challenging and exhausting task since most of the areas of interest are beyond typical human reach. We advocate the use of autonomous teams of multi-rotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to speed up the documentation process by several orders of magnitude while allowing for an autonomous solution capable of repeatable and accurate collision-free operation at great heights. The Dronument technology can perform single-UAV tasks with different sensors (high-resolution camera, laser scanner) and allows for multi-UAV cooperation in tasks requiring dynamic scene illumination in real-world scenarios, a process previously applicable only in small-scale laboratory-like conditions.
 

Our experimental deployments range from single-UAV imaging to specialized lighting techniques (visible, IR, UV) requiring accurate coordination of multiple UAVs. The technology has been used in 17 historical structures, where it was to this day deployed in more than 12 hours of autonomous flying to document cultural (paintings, altars, statues, mosaics, frescoes, stained glass, pillars, pipe organs) and structural elements (wall clefts) without access to GPS.

This multidisciplinary project results from the cooperation of roboticists from the Multi-Robot Systems group (MRS) and restorers and conservators from the Czech Heritage Institute. The Czech Ministry of Culture approved the Dronument methodology (in Czech only, English summary available in article New Era in Cultural Heritage Preservation) for using UAVs in interior documentation. This methodology specifies numerous lessons transferable to other safety-critical robotic missions in documentation and inspection tasks.


Project results

  • Interactive 3D models of some of the documented historical sites are available at mrs.felk.cvut.cz/3d-model-viewer.
  • Project outputs (Nmet, Npam, Nmaps) are available (in Czech only) at dronument.cz/vystupy.
  • Public workshop on September 12, 2021: video record (~3.5h incl. presentation of Dronument and real example of the UAV system).
  • Document The hidden places of St. Moritz Church in Olomouc, video (5m 25s).
  • Document Chateau Plumlov and its historical secrets from the bird's eye view, video (5m 10s)
  • Functional sample of the UAV platform: description in Czech, 3D model.
  • The project was part of the Czech Pavilion at EXPO2020 in Dubai.
