Abstract:The technique of threedimensional modeling not only can help archaeologists display ruins, but also saves antiques’ spatial information more completely in variable timesequence.It can provide various materials for following analysis. In this paper, a multiview 3D model of a bronze tripod, as an example, was reconstruted by applying the multiview threedimensional reconstruction technique. A coordinate system established by setting control points can help extract contour lines and generate orthophotos and profile drawings.
