This point cloud is of the Roman Villa of Realmonte, located on the Mediterreanan Sea along the southern coast of Sicily. This site was occupied from the 2nd to the 7th centuries and was likely home to a large estate that was possibly the location of extensive pottery, brick and tile production. The point cloud was created using two FARO Focus3D laserscanners. Data were processed in FARO SCENE and CloudCompare.
