The aim is to create a framework combining HBIM and GIS for better documentation and conservation of heritage buildings.
Developed a geospatially enabled HBIM-GIS framework
Used various photogrammetric methods (TDP, UAVDP, SP) for data acquisition
Employed staged point-cloud fusion techniques
Generated 2D drawings and 3D HBIM models from fused datasets
Conducted GIS thematic mapping for data structuring
Achieved high-density, georeferenced composite with over 360 million points
RMS residuals of point-cloud data below 0.013 m
Identified critical deterioration mechanisms like moisture decay and cracking
Found that side-to-side cracks made up approximately 55% to 65% of mapped fissures
Demonstrated applicability through implementation on a historic mosque in Yemen
