DOCUMENTATION OF A VERNACULAR HOUSE WITH CLOSE-RANGE DIGITAL PHOTOGRAMMETRY

This study aims to present a combined documentation method that can be easily applied on the built vernacular heritage prior to establishment of appropriate conservation methodology and treatment strategy. It takes into consideration the vernacular house type of Alacati, Izmir, Turkey and defines the appropriate techniques to be used in the conservation aimed analytic recording process. The prismatic house masses at human scale, with plain facade orders and orthogonal plan layouts at this settlement can be recorded fast and accurately with close-range digital photogrammetry. The concepts of mapping should be utilized for the representation of analtic data. Within this frame, a 19 th century house located in the urban conservation site of Alacati is to be presented as the case study.
