Authors: Trinh Thao Thi Kim , Lee Yun Yeong , Suh Mina , Jun Jae Kwan , Choi Kui Son
Published: May 2022

OBJECTIVES: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has negatively affected every aspect of medical care. However, information regarding the impact of the pandemic on cancer screening is lacking. This study aimed to explore cancer screening changes by geographic region before and during the pandemic in Korea.METHODS: Korean National Cancer Screening Survey data for 2019 and 2020 were used. Changes in the screening rate before and during the COVID-19 pandemic were calculated by subtracting the rate in 2020 from the rate in 2019. Multivariate logistic regression analyses examined the differences in screening rates at the national and 16 provincial levels before and after the COVID-19 outbreak.RESULTS: The 1-year screening rates for the four types of cancer decreased during the pandemic (stomach cancer: -5.1, colorectal cancer: -3.8, breast cancer: -2.5, cervical cancer: -1.5%p). In metropolitan areas, the odds of undergoing screening tests during the pandemic were significantly lower than before the pandemic for stomach (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.56 to 0.76), colorectal (aOR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.50 to 0.79), and breast cancers (aOR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.60 to 0.94). Furthermore, the likelihood of undergoing stomach cancer screening during the pandemic was significantly lower than before the pandemic in non-metropolitan urban areas (aOR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.70 to 0.94), while it was higher in rural areas (aOR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.10 to 2.16).CONCLUSIONS: Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the cancer screening rate has decreased significantly, especially in large cities. Public health efforts are required to improve cancer screening rates.

Published: May 2022

This study examined whether Aedes aegypti extends its human blood seeking activity into night hours. Human landing catches (HLC) were conducted hourly from early morning (04:30) to late evening (21:30) in urban and rural sites in Kisumu County in western Kenya, and in Kwale County at the coast. Out of 842 female Ae. aegypti mosquitoes, 71 (8.5%) were collected at night (nocturnal), 151 (17.9%) at twilight (crepuscular), and 620 (73.6%) during the day (diurnal). Three-fold and significantly more Ae. aegypti female mosquitoes were collected during the twilight (crepuscular) hours than night (nocturnal) hours. Significantly more Ae. aegypti female mosquitoes were collected during daytime (diurnal) than night time (nocturnal). In general, the number of mosquitoes collected reduced as darkness increased. Extended time into the night to seek for blood meals enhances chances for Ae. aegypti to contact humans and transmit arboviruses diseases.

Published: May 2022

Introduction:

Manual wheelchair propulsion is a physically demanding task associated with upper extremity pain and pathology. Shoulder pain is reported in over 25% of pediatric manual wheelchairs users, and this number rises over the lifespan. Upper extremity biomechanics in adults has been associated with shoulder pain and pathology; however, few studies have investigated upper extremity joint dynamics in children. Furthermore, sex may be a critical factor that is currently unexplored with regard to pediatric wheelchair mobility.

Objectives:

To investigate differences in upper extremity joint dynamics between pediatric male and female manual wheelchair users with spinal cord injury (SCI) during wheelchair propulsion.

Methods:

Novel instrumented wheelchair hand-rims synchronized with optical motion capture were used to acquire upper extremity joint dynamics of 20 pediatric manual wheelchair users with SCI (11 males, 9 females). Thorax, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular, glenohumeral, elbow, and wrist joint kinematics and kinetics were calculated during wheelchair propulsion. Linear mixed models were used to assess differences between sexes.

Results:

Females exhibited significantly greater peak forearm pronation (p = .007), normalized wrist lateral force (p = .03), and normalized elbow posterior force (p = .04) than males. Males exhibited significantly greater peak sternoclavicular joint retraction (p < .001) than females. No significant differences between males and females were observed for the glenohumeral joint (p > .012).

Conclusion:

This study found significant differences in upper extremity joint dynamics between sexes during manual wheelchair propulsion. Our results underscore the importance of considering sex when evaluating pediatric wheelchair mobility and developing comprehensive wheelchair training interventions for early detection and prevention of upper extremity pain and pathology.

Published: May 2022

La présente étude a pour objectif d’estimer le potentiel de valorisation énergétique des déchets organiques produits dans la localité de Bitchoua (Ouest du Cameroun) ainsi que les émissions évitées de gaz à effet de serre en considérant que la production d’énergie permettrait de soustraire les émissions des déchets souvent abandonnés dans la nature. Ces évaluations ont été réalisées à partir des données spatiales disponibles, des enquêtes socio-démographiques et des estimations quantitatives des gisements de déchets appropriés à Bitchoua. Il ressort de l’étude que Bitchoua génère annuellement environ 39250 t de déchets organiques mobilisables, dont la valorisation énergétique permettrait de produire annuellement par méthanisation et combustion, environ 66145 MWh de bioélectricité, ce qui correspond à 11 680,15 % de la consommation électrique actuelle de ce territoire. Cette valorisation permettrait d’éviter chaque année les émissions de plus de 53 731 t eq.CO2 issues des déchets organiques au cas où ils sont abandonnés dans la nature.

Waterborne parasites, particularly Cryptosporidium and Giardia, are emerging pathogens implicating the safety level of drinking water globally. The aim of this study was to determine the distribution pattern of waterborne parasites in raw and treated water at urban and rural water treatment plants and untreated water from gravity-feed system in Kuching, Sarawak. This study focused on water treatment plants (four urban and two rural) and Bong rural community that utilise gravity-feed system in Kuching, Sarawak. A total of 69 raw and treated water samples were collected and processed before being used in detection of Cryptosporidium and Giardia using Aqua-Glo™ G/C Direct and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole stains, as well as other parasites that were detected using Lugol’s iodine staining. Parameters which were temperature, pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, total dissolved solids, conductivity, faecal coliform of the water as well as rainfall intensity were determined. Correlation of the parameters with distribution of the waterborne parasites was analysed. Out of 69 water samples collected across all localities, 25 samples were contaminated with waterborne parasites with varying waterborne parasite concentration in the water samples. The presence of waterborne parasites in the raw and treated water of water treatment plants in this study signifies public health threats do exist despite being conventionally treated. This study also highlights that the gravity-feed system which is commonly depended by rural communities in Malaysia may facilitate waterborne parasitic infections.

To contribute to knowledge of the epidemiology of American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) among indigenous people living in sylvatic regions, we studied the sand fly fauna collected in areas of disease transmission in the Brazilian Amazon. Here we report two datasets comprising occurrence data for sand flies from the Suruwaha Indigenous Land in the state of Amazonas collected in 2012–2013, and the Wajãpi Indigenous Land in the state of Amapá collected in 2013–2014. Sand flies were collected using unbaited CDC-like light traps at various sites within each study area and were identified to either genus or species-level by taxonomists with expertise in Amazonian fauna. A total of 4,646 records are reported: 1,428 from the Suruwaha and 3,218 from the Wajãpi. These records will contribute to a better understanding of ACL transmission dynamics, as well as the distribution of insect vectors, in these areas.
Dancing for the Saints in the Time of Covid-19: Responses to the 2020 Lockdown in Central Mexico
Authors: Robichaux David , Martínez Galván Jorge , Moreno Carvallo José Manuel
Published: May 2022

During religious feasts in the Teotihuacán and Texcoco regions northeast of Mexico City, people ‘dance for the saint,’ often to fulfill a vow made in a supplication for healing. Based on fieldwork carried out between 2011 and 2019, and online interviews and monitoring of Facebook postings in late 2020 and early 2021, in this article we explore the impact of the coronavirus on the devotional dances staged in the context of religious feasts. In particular, we examine the cases of new practices adopted during the lockdown. Drawing on Jeremy Stolow’s (2005) concept of “religions as media,” we show how a combination of digital and in-person media make it possible for local Catholic communities to maintain the relationship with their patron-saint during the pandemic, based on the principle of do ut des, “though differently.” We conclude by raising questions concerning the future of the devotional dances and religious feasts in these regions as pandemic restrictions entered their second year.
Evaluate Sediment Contamination with some Heavy Metals. A Case Study of the Al-Gharraf River in Wasit, Iraq
Authors: Al Mayyahi Sattar , Al-Shammary Sarteel
Published: May 2022

This study aimed to determine the amount of heavy metal pollution in the Al Garraf River sediment in Wasit, Iraq. Seven samples were gathered from the Al-Gharraf River in July 2021. GPS was used to determine the geographic location of these samples. The pollution level in the Al Gharraf River sediments caused by manganese, chromium, cadmium, cobalt, zinc, nickel, copper, and lead pollution indices such as enrichment factor, geo-accumulation, contamination factor, and pollution load were used to analyze the situation. Although geo-accumulation has mostly been used to evaluate contamination in freshwater sediment, one of the most frequently utilized factors is an enrichment to quantify to determine degrees of anthropogenic contamination and ratios of enrichment. On the other hand, the pollution load index is calculated as the number of times the concentration of heavy metals in sediments exceeds the concentration and level and is used for estimating the total amount of toxicity of heavy metals in samples. At the same time, our study discovered that cadmium is heavily polluted (contamination value is 5.70) in Al Gharraf River sediments, while nickel (1.51) and lead (1.75) are moderately polluted, but that the metals manganese, cobalt, chromium, zinc, and copper are not.
Phase Transition Model between Swarm Behavior and Territorial Behavior
Authors: Sawada Tatsuki , Matsumoto Noriko , Yoshida Norihiko
Published: May 2022

Abstract

Swarm behavior is collective behavior of creatures moving with their neighbors, such as a flock of birds or a school of fishes. From the system optimization standpoint of view, there have been a number of “bioinspired” models proposed to apply the swarm behavior to organize complex systems and/or to incorporate robustness and flexibility. Territorial behavior is another group form of homogeneous individuals in which each one lives in a separate region (territory) from each other. For system optimization. The most notable application is coverage control. There are some creatures which exhibit either swarm behavior and territorial behavior according to their circumstances and conditions. However, as far as we know, there is no attempt toward any model or algorithm to combine both the swarm behavior and territorial behavior to make systems adapt to the change of circumstances and conditions. This paper proposes a phase transition model to combine swarm behavior and territorial behavior. The model is expected to apply to network optimization in dynamic environments, especially transition between cloud computing and edge computing. Through simulation-based experiments, we verify the convergence behavior of the model.

Keywords: Swarm behavior, Territorial behavior, Dynamic transition
The elite horseman from the Przeworsk culture territory
Authors: Madyda-Legutko Renata
Published: May 2022

A new analysis of one of the graves (No. 177) at the burial ground of the Przeworsk culture in Drochlin, Częstochowa District, dated to the C1a phase of the Younger Roman Period, allows us to participate in a discussion about the position of horseman warriors in the milieu of the Przeworsk culture. The preserved grave goods from Drochlin suggest that the buried horseman can be considered a representative of the local elite. The iron spurs decorated with brass, bow arrowheads, and one glass vessel underline his social rank. The spurs have a stylistic association with spurs known from the sphere of Wielbark culture and also to those found on the territory of the Northern European Barbaricum. Similar associations were identified regarding the belt buckle. This paper also examines whether the bow was part of the equipment of the Przeworsk culture warriors or was a hunting weapon.

Health information systems: proposal of a provenance data management method in the instantiation of the W3C PROV-DM model
Authors: Sembay Márcio José , de Macedo Douglas Dyllon Jeronimo
Published: May 2022

Health Information Systems (HIS) are being implemented in all aspects of health, from administration to clinical decision support systems. The generation and storage of large volumes of data in their decentralized repositories make these processes challenging when it comes to managing this data. The data provenance approaches in this regard help to answer questions such as: why? How? Where? When? by whom? And for what? The data were produced in the HIS, contributing to several benefits, especially in terms of traceability of the data of origin so that they can be managed within these systems. In this context, the present work is bibliographical research of qualitative nature based on the Provenance Data Model (PROV-DM) recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), where we propose a method for management of provenance data in HIS. Considering the theme of this study, the research question presented here is: how to develop a method for the management of provenance data in HIS in the instantiation of the W3C PROV-DM model? An expected result is the development of a prototype to validate the method proposed here in a real health scenario, showing, in fact, the benefit of using the method.
Data privacy: A discussion in light of Information Science paradigms
Authors: Pessoa Luiz Gustavo de Sena Brandão , de Sousa Marckson Roberto Ferreira
Published: May 2022

Data privacy has been gaining more and more space in the academic and professional environment. In this sense, Information Science (IS) can contribute to this field of study, as the properties of information combined with available technologies are part of its scientific approaches. Based on the reflection on the Theory of Concentric Spheres (TCS), this article sought to reflect in the light on Information Science aspects related to paradigms and terminological issues that permeate the theme of data privacy. The research is exploratory and descriptive. During the investigation, we sought to know the different terminological currents that deal with privacy to relate to the theory above, verifying whether or not there is a relationship in its application with the paradigms of Information Science. It is concluded that part of the doctrine understands that the concept of privacy is generalized. Another part diverges, stating that they are different concepts. When comparing TCS with the paradigms of IS, analogous applications between both treated concepts are concluded.

Published: May 2022

The Federal Police of Brazil initiated many money-laundering investigations through Financial Intelligence Reports generated by the Financial Operations Control Board of Brazil. When they arrive at the Federal Police, these reports are first analyzed and then distributed among the country's police stations, which will have to decide whether to initiate a formal investigation or whether the reports will be filed as intelligence information. This triage is usually tricky and laborious, as it involves the analysis of diverse and complex information related to the operations, people and companies mentioned. As a result, the present research showed the possibility of applying artificial intelligence through machine learning to help this task. The implementation of the Random Forest classification algorithm and its application achieved a performance of 70% accuracy. The dataset consisted of 793 Financial Intelligence Reports, and the algorithm rated 522 reports as "archive as intelligence information" and 271 reports as "initiate a formal investigation". A feature selection process was carried out to achieve this accuracy, revealing that the sum of values, the amount of communications, and the number of people involved form the optimal subset of characteristics that best represents the classification model.

O presente trabalho trata da crítica agroecológica ao padrão de desenvolvimento técnico-científico agrícola hegemônico. Para tanto, aborda o processo de artificialização da agricultura, associado aos postulados da Revolução Verde, bem como suas implicações socioambientais e culturais. Em seguida, sob uma metodologia compreensiva de cunho weberiano, tece algumas considerações acerca do enfoque transdisciplinar da agroecologia, que tem colocado em questão, não apenas os efeitos deletérios que a agricultura industrial vem imprimindo no meio ambiente, como também, a título de conclusão, a parcelização disciplinar e a epistemologia da ciência em Guzmán, bem como a ideia de ecosofia sob uma perspectiva maffesoliana de organicidade das coisas e tribalismo pós-moderno.
Exemplifying the Bradford’s Law: an analysis of recent research (2014-2019) on capital structure
Authors: Alves Francisco Ivander Amado Borges
Published: May 2022

The theme of capital structure is considered relevant within Corporate Finance, because it refers to decisions that influence the way firms finance, impacting the value and financial commitment of organizations. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the recent (2014-2019) world academic production on capital structure through the use of the Bradford Law. To do so, we collected the scientific articles available in the Web of Science. Data analysis was done through the description and use of the Bradford’s Law. The main findings indicated that the peak of scientific production on the subject occurred in 2017 (1,765 articles); it was identified that two authors stand out as those who participated in more articles in the theme. The application of the Bradford’s Law indicated that there is concentration of production in 5% of the journal (taken as 'core' of the publication on capital structure) which 2387 works. The journals considered 'important' correspond 19% (531 of them), publishing 2,262 articles. The other journals are considered 'noise', once they have published two or one articles. Because it is a relevant topic both in the business and academic aspects, as well as the fact that there are still gaps in the literature, new research is still expected, which makes it necessary to investigate how this research is behaving.

Published: May 2022

O presente estudo tem como objetivo verificar se a adoção de práticas de governança pública tem correlação como o desempenho das universidades federais brasileiras. Para tal, utilizou-se as práticas de governança pública mensuradas pelo Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU) e o desempenho das Universidades o ranking da Times Higher Education Latin America University 2019. A pesquisa classifica-se como quantitativa, utilizando o método estatístico de correlação de Spearman. Os resultados encontrados não sustentam uma relação significativa entre as variáveis de governança Liderança, Estratégia e Accountability mensuradas pelo TCU, e as variáveis de desempenho Ensino, Pesquisa, Citações, Perspectivas Internacionais e Indústria reportadas no Ranking Internacional THE. No entanto, como as universidades federais brasileiras listadas no ranking adotam a Governança Pública em algum nível, a contribuição dessas práticas em qualquer grau para um melhor desempenho não pode ser excluída. Como limitações do estudo destacam-se o uso de um indicador específico para coleta das variáveis previsoras e o tamanho da amostra, portanto outros estudos podem incluir amostras maiores, utilizar outros rankings tanto nacionais quanto internacionais de desempenho das universidades ou propor outras variáveis previsoras relacionadas a Governança Pública.

Fine structure and motion of the bow shock and particle energisation mechanisms inferred from Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations
Authors: Stasiewicz Krzysztof , Kłos Zbigniew
Published: May 2022

Abstract. This study presents new observations of fine structure and motion of the bow shock formed in the solar wind, upstream of the Earth's
magnetosphere. NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission has recorded data during 11 encounters with a shock oscillating with frequency of
1 mHz. Shocks move with a speed of 4–17 km s−1; have thickness of 100 km, i.e. an ion gyroradius; and represent
cascades of compressional magnetic field and plasma density structures of increasing frequencies or smaller spatial scales. Induced density
gradients initiate chains of cross-field current-driven instabilities that heat solar wind ions by the stochastic Ẽ×B wave
energisation mechanism. The theoretical ion energisation limits are confirmed by observations. We have identified the ion acceleration mechanism
operating at shocks and explained double-beam structures in the velocity space. The nature of this mechanism has been revealed as a stochastic
resonant acceleration (SRA). The results provide for the first time a consistent picture of a chain of plasma processes that generate collisionless
shocks and are responsible for particle energisation.

Abstract. In spite of the importance of land ecosystems in offsetting carbon dioxide emissions released by anthropogenic activities into the atmosphere, the spatio-temporal dynamics of the carbon fluxes remain largely uncertain at regional to global scales. Over the past decade, Data Assimilation (DA) techniques have grown in importance for improving these fluxes simulated by Terrestrial Biosphere Models (TBMs), by optimizing model parameter values while also pinpointing possible parameterization deficiencies. Although the joint assimilation of multiple data streams is expected to constrain a wider range of model processes, their actual benefits in terms of reduction in model uncertainty are still under-researched, also given the technical challenges. In this study, we investigated with a consistent DA framework and the ORCHIDEE-LMDz TBM-atmosphere model how the assimilation of different combinations of data streams may result in different regional to global carbon budgets. To do so, we performed comprehensive DA experiments where three datasets (in situ measurements of net carbon exchange and latent heat fluxes, space-borne estimates of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, and atmospheric CO2 concentration data at stations) are assimilated alone or simultaneously. We thus evaluated their complementarity and usefulness to constrain net and gross C fluxes. We found that a major challenge in improving the spatial distribution of the land sinks/sources with atmospheric CO2 data relates to the correction of the initial carbon stocks.

Abstract. Soils in the permafrost region have acted as carbon sinks for thousands of years. However, as a result of global warming, permafrost soils are thawing and will potentially release more greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). To address the large heterogeneities of GHG releases, this study focused on the relationship between CO2 and CH4 emissions and soil parameters, as well as the evolution of microbial abundance during a permafrost thaw experiment representing the extent of an Arctic summer season. Two depths from three Lena Delta cores taken along a transect from upland to floodplain were incubated anoxically for 68 days at two different temperatures (4 °C and 20 °C) and an assessment of microbiological abundance (CH4 producers and aerobic CH4 oxidizers) was performed in parallel. Samples from located in upland or slope position remained in a lag phase during the whole incubation, while those from located in the floodplain showed high production of CH4 (6.5x103 µgCH4-C.gC-1) and CO2 (6.9x103 µgCO2-C.gC-1). Periodic flooding likely allowed the establishment of favorable methanogenic conditions. The presence of higher copy numbers of methanogenic archaea in the active layer of the floodplain than in the upland and slope from the beginning (1.5 to 9.6 times higher) until the end of the incubation time (11 to 700 times higher) supported this hypothesis. In addition, our study pointed out different anaerobic CO2 production (methanogenesis and other respiration) pathways according to landscape position.

Published: May 2022

Abstract. Depth estimation from a single image is a challenging task, especially inside the highly structured forest environment. In this paper, we propose a supervised deep learning model for monocular depth estimation based on forest imagery. We train our model on a new data set of forest RGB-D images that we collected using a terrestrial laser scanner. Alongside the input RGB image, our model uses a sparse depth channel as input to recover the dense depth information. The prediction accuracy of our model is significantly higher than that of state-of-the-art methods when applied in the context of forest depth estimation. Our model brings the RMSE down to 2.1 m, compared to 4 m and above for reference methods.
PHOTOGRAMMETRIC MONITORING OF GRAVITATIONAL MASS MOVEMENTS IN ALPINE REGIONS BY MARKERLESS 3D MOTION CAPTURE

Published: May 2022

Abstract. Gravitational mass movements represent a significant hazard potential in Alpine regions. Due to climate change and an associated increases in extreme weather events, this risk is growing. For a better predictability of such events and the monitoring of affected areas, a precise determination of the ongoing movements is necessary. In this paper, a method for monitoring of Alpine slope movements based on image sequences is presented. By means of SIFT features, corresponding key points in the images of different epochs are found. Then, using forward section, the object coordinates of the points are computed. By using these coordinates and the detected correspondences, three-dimensional motion vectors can be determined. The calculated vectors are checked for significance based on their accuracy. The vectors found have a high spatial density compared to manually marked points and are detected automatically. In order to detect even small-scale movements, they are determined with an accuracy of a few millimeters. The data basis is a sequence of images of an active landslide on the Hochvogel mountain (Alps, Germany) which were taken in 2018 and 2021. On average, the calculated motion vectors show a movement of 75 mm.

Published: May 2022

Abstract. Automatic photogrammetric processing of historical (or archival) aerial photos is still a challenging task, particularly in cases of missing ancillary information, low radiometric and image quality, limited stereo coverage or large temporal span. However, with recent advances in photogrammetry and Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms for image processing and interpretation, an increasing number of applications are now feasible. The article presents the TIME (hisTorical aerIal iMagEs) benchmark (https://time.fbk.eu/), promoted by EuroSDR to explore the potential of historical aerial images. Realized in collaboration with various European NMCAs, the benchmark has garnered aerial image blocks and time series imagery captured since the 1950s. To support the photogrammetric processing of the digitized photos, ancillary data are supplied with available information about flight missions, taking cameras, and ground control points (GCPs). Several diverse investigations have been undertaken with the benchmark datasets, all captured over historical urban areas or landscapes. The paper describes the benchmark datasets and some potential research topics, presenting several tests and analyses realized with the collated and shared data.

Published: May 2022

Abstract. At the time of continuous development of all technologies, deep machine learning (more precisely, convolutional neural networks), which is one of the branches of artificial intelligence (AI), has found wide application in many fields, including photogrammetry and remote sensing. One of the areas where a lot of research is conducted using these methods is the recognition of objects in aerial and satellite imagery. Through the application of deep learning algorithms and neural networks, it is possible to automate labour-intensive processes. However, while object detection in images using machine learning is popular for natural scenes and in recent years also for nadir aerial and satellite imagery, for aerial oblique imagery at the moment of this research there were relatively few publications on the subject. The challengeable task in object detection is the time-consuming generation of training datasets when access is limited or non-existent. This study proposed the methodology to automate this process with use of existing resources for transferring of references to new databases for training models for detect objects on aerial oblique images. The object detection was performed using the YOLOv3 neural network. Experiment results tested on two datasets have shown that the proposed method could realize the task of object detection in oblique aerial images.

Abstract. In this paper, we present a multi-sensor approach employed to obtain the 3D model of the Roman temple of Bziza (Lebanon) and its surroundings, a work carried out as part of the archaeological Northern Lebanon Project (NoLeP). The integration of photogrammetry and portable mobile mapping technology was tested to overcome the weaknesses of each individual surveying method, with the aim of producing a complete and realistic 3D reconstruction of the whole site, as well as capturing at high-resolution the architectural features of the main structure. Moreover, this case study serves to further investigate the accuracy that can be reached with mobile laser scanners, highlighting benefits and limitations of this rapid and efficient mapping technique also in the field of Cultural Heritage documentation.
