RESEARCH ON THE APPLICATION OF UAV OBLIQUE PHOTOGRAMMETRY TO LILONG HOUSING: TAKING MEILAN LANE AS AN EXAMPLE

Abstract. Vernacular architecture has always captured professionals’ attention for its unique approaches to construction, typical way of integrating man and nature the it is used. Being a combination traditional courtyard houses in China with townhouses West, Lilong or Shikumen are representatives Shanghai vernacular housing. In terms applying UAV oblique photogrammetry preserving documenting historic architectures, some studies have been done China, but scant literatures found on houses. This research an attempt preserve document by adopting 3D modelling, explore rational approach application narrow lanes establish collection models ongoing changes as well nuances each building more carefully. this research, Meilan Lane chosen example. Aided AutoCAD drawings, flight routes angles designed. parameters pre-set GoodStation send quantified instructions drone. A total 4,531 photos gathered 4 built ContextCapture Master.
