The bCu-gcig-zhal of Wanla

Computer-Visualization
The analysis of the surveyed building includes reports as well as the drawing of 2-dimensional-CAAD plans.
In those cases, where buil-dings have been changed in shape and structure as a result of repair works or have been (partly) demolished, the original form will be reconstructed virtually in a 3-dimensional-animated model.
For instance a first result in animation is the bCu-gcig-zhal of Wanla based on the field research dating back to the year 1998.
In this model, the porche was reconstructed in its original appearance.
As soon as photographs of the cleaned paintings of the interior are available, they can be subsequently inserted into the existing virtual model.
