Here is a great complement to my last post. I'm pleased to present another amazing creation by the master of photogrammetry Marián Marčiš. This 3D model is of the archaeological site of Ollantaytambo in Peru, and features the South wall, that visitors rarely get to see. Enjoy, and make...

I’m thrilled to present something Marián Marčiš and I have been working on for the past few weeks. To my knowledge, this is something that has never been done before, and this is our first model that includes underground parts. Behold a photogrammetric 3D model of Zona X! Zona X (also known as Lanlakuyoc or Lancacuyo) is a mysterious site about a mile North-East of Sacsayhuaman. It’s a big limestone outcrop intersected by a network of tunnels and narrow passageways, some open to the sky, and others going deep underground. It also features several right-angled cuts in the bedrock ("hanan pacha" style) whose function remains unknown to this day, as well as a section of a megalithic wall. It is also said that this site once had a chincana entrance, possibly connecting to Sacsayhuaman, that has now been sealed off. I have an idea of which passage could lead to an entrance, but it remains to be confirmed. It's a true stone labyrinth in which it's easy to get lost, which is why I wanted to create a 3D map of it. I wanted to get a better idea of how these passages are oriented in relation to each other and where they could lead. It took several visits to the site to map all the passages I could crawl through. Some of these passageways become too narrow to squeeze through for an adult of average build, but seem to extend much deeper. It took Marián a LOT of work (and a lot of processing power) to combine and align the thousands of photos from a drone and extracted from a 360° ground video needed to create the 55 millions triangles that make up this model. I’m not sure how he did it but he pulled it off. He really deserves his title of photogrammetry wizard. Please make sure to give him the follow he deserves Marián Marčiš. The video doesn't show all the passages I filmed for the creation of the model. We decided to only show the main ones, and some of the most prominent stone carvings in order to keep the video relatively short. The site has many more nooks and crannies not shown in the video that are just begging to be explored. I hope we can complete this model in the future. Until then, enjoy this one!
