Claim One:
1. A method performed on a computer for the production of photogrammetric renderings of an object from an image of the object, the method comprising: processing the image by a photogrammetric process to produce a photogrammetric image; and processing the photogrammetric image by a graphic arts rendering process to provide a processed two-dimensional image that comprises a version in which texture detail related to mortar joints on the object has been selectively removed while selectively enhancing texture detail related to stone surfaces on the object, wherein the graphic arts rendering process: processes original texture data of the object from the photogrammetric image to generate processed texture data that enhances one or more features of the stone surfaces on the object; and generates the processed two-dimensional image by fabricating a rendering of the object that portrays the processed texture data and is based entirely on the original texture data.
