Survey of a two-dimensional scale model of a rubble-mound breakwater using different stereo-photogrammetric techniques

Abstract

This paper focus on the study of different methodologies for surveying two-dimensional scale models of a rubble mound breakwaters. Tests were conducted in one of the LNEC’s irregular wave flumes and comprised the use of four different methodologies using photogrammetric and structured light techniques. This paper describes the materials and methods used during the experiments, as well as the results obtained. Data analysis comprised profile and mesh comparison between techniques, in order to evaluate their application in scale model tests of rubble mound breakwaters. Also, the specific experimental conditions needed for using each of those techniques were investigated.
