The article reports about a multi-resolution and multi-sensor approach developed for the accurate and detailed reality-based 3D modeling of the entire Roman Forum in Pompei, Italy. The Forum, approximately 150 x 80 m, contains more than 350 finds spread all over the area as well as larger mural structures of previous buildings and temples. The interdisciplinary 3D modeling work consists of a multi-scale image- and range-based digital documentation method developed to fulfill all the surveying and archaeological needs and exploit all the intrinsic potentialities of the actual 3D modeling techniques. Data’s resolution spans from few decimeters down to few millimeters. The results of the integration of the different 3D data in seamlessly textured 3D model are presented and discussed.

The interdisciplinary 3D modeling work consists of a multi-scale image- and range-based digital documentation method developed to fulfill all the surveying and archaeological needs and exploit all the intrinsic potentialities of the actual 3D modeling techniques.
