Image-based 3D models are powerful resources providing exceptional means, by which the lived qualities of urban environments can be discovered. Traditional means of studying ancient urban features, such as 2D drawings, small physical replications, and even 3D reconstructions, lack characteristics and qualities that greatly diminish architectural historians’ ability to analyze these spaces. Therefore, it is paramount to deploy technology such as photogrammetry that rapidly produces detailed 3D models that can address these deficiencies. Issues such as movement within and through spaces, their communicative qualities, and their ability to cater to a multitude of activities are key to our understanding of how urban environments are perceived and experienced kinetically. At the forefront of this study is the development of an efficient and accurate process for producing image-based 3D models of Pompeian intersections. By eliminating traditionally labor and time intensive processes, one can dedicate more resources to onsite analysis, as well as drastically lowering the costs of traditionally expensive techniques.
