This model 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. This model was completed from 165 photos with a Phantom 4 Pro drone processed in Reality Capture.
