3D Documentation
The Zamani Project, based at the University of Cape Town, spatially documented the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela, including Biete Meskel, during four field campaigns between 2005-2009. The documentation was carried with the support of the Andrew W Mellon Foundation and in co-operation with the World Monuments Funds. Over 1200 terrestrial laser scans where acquired to generate 3D models of 14 monuments. Panorama tours combining photographic full-dome panoramas and covering all churches were also generated. Textured 3D models, panorama tours, elevations, sections and plans are available on www.zamaniproject.org.
