Documenting monuments is crucial for studying architectural heritage. 3D photogrammetry, is an innovative technique based on algorithms that analyze captured photos.
This method, along with laser scanning, provides a point cloud, but it does not require a large budget.
As part of this project, the team will use photogrammetry to capture, and create 3D point clouds of heritage objects located on Uznadze Street in Tbilisi's historical zone, and produce their drawings. The team will conduct art history research on the buildings and, based on the restorer's findings, determine their primary colors.

Uznadze Street was selected for the project based on the following reasons:
1. The street has a concentration of buildings which hold significant artistic and historical value for Tbilisi's urban heritage.
2. Many of the buildings are damaged and face the risk of being replaced by new structures, which could result in the loss of historical heritage.
3. The buildings on the street have not undergone restoration, allowing them to maintain their authenticity.
4. The facades of the buildings contain elaborate decorative elements, many of which are damaged, thus emphasizing the need for immediate documentation.
Although the majority of the buildings are significant monuments of Tbilisi architecture, they have not been extensively studied. Over time, the original appearance of the facades has been drastically altered.

The interdisciplinary nature of the project is demonstrated through the integration of data from artistic research, restorative studies, and advanced measurement methodologies.

The scientific outcome of the project will be disseminated through a bilingual publication, which will encompass both artistic and technical research, measurements, and archival material. Publication will serve as a resource in the fields of art history, restoration, architecture, monument preservation, and archaeology.

Within the framework of the project, the first interdisciplinary research of this type in Georgia will be conducted. The following factors emphasize the significance of the research: a significant portion of Tbilisi's urban heritage is in disrepair. Due to the high cost and laborious nature of surveying works, many monuments were destroyed without being documented against the backdrop of the city's chaotic development, resulting in losses both to the city and to science.

If used correctly, the method chosen for our research will make building documentation more accessible. The project's implementation will contribute to the professional assessment of the method, its compliance with the field's requirements, and its potential for effective use in documenting and researching other monuments.
