Three-level TLS with a scalable measurement distance and accuracy is presented for data collection to compensate for data missed because of mutual sheltering and scanning view limitations. A multi-scale data fusion approach is proposed for data registration and filtering of the different scales and separated 3D data. A point projection algorithm together with point cloud slice tools is designed for fine surveying to generate all types of architecture maps, such as plan drawings, facade drawings, section drawings, and doors and windows drawings. The section drawings together with slicing point cloud are presented for the deformation analysis of the building structure. Along with fine drawings and laser scanning data, the 3D models of the ancient architecture components are built for digital management and visualization. Results show that the proposed approach can achieve fine surveying and 3D documentation of the ancient architecture within 3 mm accuracy. In addition, the defects of scanning view and mutual sheltering can overcome to obtain the complete and exact structure in detail.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs8040270","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,29]],"date-time":"2016-03-29T16:00:28Z","timestamp":1459267228000},"page":"270","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Fine Surveying and 3D Modeling Approach for Wooden Ancient Architecture via Multiple Laser Scanner Integration"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0866-6678","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qingwu","family":"Hu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering, Wuhan University, No.129, Luoyu Road, Wuhan 430079, China"}]},{"given":"Shaohua","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of International Software, Wuhan University, No.129, Luoyu Road, Wuhan 430079, China"}]},{"given":"Caiwu","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of National Culture Development, Wuhan University, Luojiashan, Wuhan 430070, China"}]},{"given":"Mingyao","family":"Ai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering, Wuhan University, No.129, Luoyu Road, Wuhan 430079, China"}]},{"given":"Dengbo","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering, Wuhan University, No.129, Luoyu Road, Wuhan 430079, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2000-3914","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wende","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of National Culture Development, Wuhan University, Luojiashan, Wuhan 430070, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Zhang, Q.
