Abstract

In this research work the three-dimensional reconstruction of the monument of San Juan Bautista de La Salle, located on the steps of the entrance of the building of the Universidad La Salle Pachuca, campus La Concepción, is carried out. The reconstruction is obtained through the combined application of aerial photogrammetry through the use of an unmanned aerial vehicle type quadcopter, this device is characterized and built to capture high quality photographs. While the digital photogrammetry is carried out by means of the specialized 3DF Zephyr software. This with the purpose of preserving the cultural richness and Lasallian identity. This photogrammetric analysis allows an objective description of the main Lasallian elements and symbols that make up this emblematic sculpture.
