I wondered if the images taken during the Level 2 recording of Whitlow III bastle at Epiacum could generate a 3D model (accompanied by Doonan Architects' drone images).
What do you think? The internal south fireplace needs a little work but not too bad as a by-product...
Whitlow III Bastle remanant - 3D model by Tony Liddell - Sketchfab
3D model of Whitlow III bastle remnant, near Epiacum Roman Fort, Alston, Northumberland. The model still needs a little work on the internal south wall fireplace etc, but the model was generated essentially as a by-product from images taken from a Level 2 building recording project, so I’m qui...

A little innovation in archaeological survey. The clip below shows John working his way around the Moasure One, a motion-reliant measuring tool that produces 3D line drawings in real time with on-screen measurements that can be immediately exported as an image, PDF or to CAD.
We've recently also started using the unit for updating building floorplans - we often get provided with such plans for undertaking historic building recording projects, but they're often out of date. The Moasure One provides a very quick and accurate alternative to sometimes the laborious task of updating those plans on site.

Hi Tony - can you add point locations, as a layer? to get 3D location of finds within site boundary?
Over the Summer we had some interesting projects to undertake, which included six walkover surveys in Northumberland combining to well over 1000 hectares. Some of the sites we inspected were stunning examples, one of which was the Kettley Rock Art Shelter, Scheduled Ancient Monument List entry 1417677. The rock art panel likely dates to the Late Neolithic or early Bronze Age, and was originally discovered in the late 20th century. Unlike a lot of the panels we inspected in the local area that were degrading badly, the Kettley panel was shielded by the overhang of the 'shelter', thus preserving the designs to a much greater degree. Below you can see a selection of the photos from the survey, including John undertaking part of the recording process.

I visited some of these cup and ring marked stones when walking in Northumberland some 30,+ years ago. Glad to see they are being fully recorded now
Hopefully what every other archaeology team is doing today!
