New Publications From Pen to Pixel Studies of the Roman Forum and the Digital Future of World Heritage The collaborative work of Prof. Dr. Ing. Krupali Krusche and Dott.ssa Patrizia Fortini for the last ten years with her DHARMA Lab has been recording the Forum as an urban precinct of some of the most important ancient monuments of Italy. This book is supported with a synopsis of never before published drawings with a complete set of measure drawn plans, elevations, and panoramic views of the Forum in 3D point cloud, Gigapan photographs, line drawing, and watercolor formats. And is a precursor to the study and analysis of the urban relationships and new findings in the Forum.

Lidar Mapping of Mumbai The City of Mumbai is facing issues related to rising sea levels and land subsidence. In order to measure the accuracy of the available information and future predictions for the city, the DHARMA team is anticipating a detailed digital Lidar mapping of the city. This will include a resolution of 0.5m or less accuracy that will be able to capture buildings, blocks, roads and green infrastructure.
