Bei der Verwendung dieser Produkte muss gewährleistet sein, dass die Genauigkeit der damit erstellten Darstellung für den für die jeweilige Projektphase erforderlichen Detaillierungsgrad ausreichend ist. Die Möglichkeit, auf kostenlose kartografische Ressourcen im Internet zuzugreifen, anstatt eine eigene digitale Objektrepräsentation zu erstellen, ist ein großer Vorteil für Beteiligte eines Bau- oder Restaurierungsprojekts. Finally, if the outcomes can be extrapolated for widespread use of these resources for the site modeling of a project, according to the requirements of the different levels of development defined in the Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodology.Įignung der spanischen offenen öffentlichen kartografischen Ressourcen für die BIM-Modellierung. The purpose of this research is to check, if the surfaces provided through the Spanish open public cartographic resources are accurate enough to replace the mapping from UAV photogrammetry. The modeling of the surface has great importance for the graphic survey of the site, because its architectural configuration is adapted to the steep slope of the hillside. The monument is located near the city of Burgos (Spain) in an area with difficult access and restricted airspace, which makes difficult the fieldwork.

The study case for this comparative research will be the graphical survey of an archaeological site of funerary architecture made in 1939 during the Spanish Civil War. We will use as a reference surface for comparison, the topographic map of the Digital Model Elevation (DEM) from the images captured by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) processed with software based on algorithms of Structure from Motion (SfM). This paper compares graphically and statistically the accuracy of the topographic surfaces we can get from the LIDAR point clouds and the Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) of the National Centre for Geographic Information (CNIG by its Spanish acronym) that in Spain are available on the internet free of charge. The use of these products must be carried out with the guarantee that the precision of the site representation made from them is adapted to the level of detail required by each phase of the project.

The possibility of accessing free cartographic resources on the internet instead of creating their own digital object representation is a big advantage for architecture and engineering professionals in the surveying process of a construction or restoration project.
