Four years ago, an art historian used lasers to digitally map Notre Dame Cathedral. His work could now help save it.

Andrew Tallon, a professor of art at Vassar College, used lasers to painstakingly scan the cathedral in 2015, giving us a nearly perfect digital replica of the Gothic structure. And his work could help architects and engineers rebuild it after Monday's fire.How to help rebuild Notre Dame CathedralTallon studied Gothic architecture and sought to understand how medieval builders erected some of Europe's great cathedrals.

Macron: We will make Notre Dame even more beautiful 01:29"Scan data ... will help them recreate measurements for beams and the overall structure," said Krupali Uplekar Krusche, who leads a team at Notre Dame University that uses 3D scanning to document historic monuments.The data can show"how the building is constructed ... and you can see every corner, every detail digitally," Krusche added.

_SLNovak Let me get Dr. Evil (Mike Myers) in here to tell you about 'LASERS' (Light Amplification through Stimulated Emission of Radiation). They don't hold a candle to being in Notre Dame (Our Lady) Cathedral with your own eyes and heart.

Save?

Go technology.

👍Exactly

Incredible 🙏🏻

Should be done for all great buildings.

Wow those lasers are probably what started the fire. Is anyone going to bring him in for questioning? Sad!

Over a BILLION dollars pledged ...within 48 hours....to rebuild a church. It has to be rebuilt but trying to get that kind of money for other worthy causes such as cancer and famine relief is so much more difficult.

Years ago I suggested cathedrals use drones/blimps to map inside works, the response was Duh JustinWelby

How fascinating 🤔

do they know what started it ?

🗣As Billions in money come in to help rebuild the NotreDame cathedral, people have been inspired to donate to rebuild three BlackAmerican churches in Louisiana that were intentionally burned down & you said nothing in the USA, Monsuier et Madame Trump

AssasinsCreed did it too

GOD Bless this art historian

'As-built' in construction lingo.

🙌🙌

Is it THIS guy

but should it even be saved?
