medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Indeed, it does, George. Andrew Tallon of Vassar University has been
using this laser scanning technology recently to analyse flying
buttresses on Gothic buildings. Laser scanning not only provides a much
clearer idea of their alignments and their relationship with walls and
vaults, but it helps to refine our understanding of the way they work.
Laser-based surveying techniques have also been used to great effect to
analyse the plans and elevations of medieval structures, as, for
example, with Linda Neagley's work on the church of St Maclou at Rouen.
Cheers,
Jim
