Abstract

This paper examines the process of developing an on-site innovative workflow for virtually reconstructing and representing the ruined Southern Decumanus of Jerash. The workflow involves capturing several related segments of disassembled and damaged Corinthian pillars using a digital camera to be imported into a 3D automated photogrammetric reconstruction-based software. The process uses digital photographs acquired in the field to reconstruct and reassemble virtually all the destroyed parts using Agisoft Metashape – a tool for photogrammetry pipeline – and Autodesk Meshmixer – a software for editing and cleaning meshes. The process also discusses managing and implementing the virtually reconstructed outputs utilising Unreal Engine (UE) to create an entire 3D virtual interactive environment for the Southern Decumanus. The new Virtual Reality (VR) system of Oculus Quest has been used in this research for visualisation and experiencing the reconstructed, reassembled virtual archaeological site. The experimental VR simulation would allow a future visitor an enhanced walk-through featuring an off-site interactive, immersive experience compared to the real-world one, which does not exist in reality and is therefore unavailable in-situ.
