Laser scanning of the Belfry of St. Sophia Cathedral: Preserving grandeur in every detail

We are proud to present our project – laser scanning of the bell tower of St. Sophia Cathedral, a symbol of the history and greatness of Ukrainian architecture. Our work is aimed at preserving every detail of this magnificent monument and creating highly accurate documentation.

History in every dimension

High precision technology

Our team of specialists used a FARO S150 laser scanner to ensure that every element of this historic bell tower was captured with incredible precision.

Documentation of greatness

We created measurement drawings that capture the richness of detail in this architectural gem. This documentation will help in the conservation and restoration of the bell tower for the future.

Preservation of cultural heritage

Our work to scan this historic site is part of an effort to preserve the cultural heritage and make it accessible to future generations.

Our contribution

Technical Precision: We strive to ensure that every project is completed with the utmost precision and attention to detail.
Respect for History: Our team values historical values and does everything possible to preserve their greatness.
Expertise: We provide professional services based on many years of experience and advanced technologies.

A digital copy of the Bell Tower of St. Sophia Cathedral will allow you to restore any parts or carry out restoration. Decorative elements were scanned separately.

It is very important to have digital copies of architectural monuments, which will allow the building to be restored.

The work is not difficult and interesting, we had fun, spent time on the territory of the reserve, and became involved in the preservation of an architectural monument of Ukraine.

Using a cloud of points and color panoramic photos, if necessary, you can make a 3D model and restore the drawing of the building.

There is not much information from Wikipedia about the Bell Tower of St. Sophia Cathedral:

The bell tower of the St. Sophia Cathedral belongs to the tower type of structure, four-tiered. The base measures 20 by 14 meters in plan. The height is 76 m. A passage passes through the bell tower in the direction from west to east.

The first tier consists of cross walls 1.5-2 m thick, converging at right angles. It serves as a support for higher tiers, the walls of which are thinner – probably to reduce the load on the first.

The first tier has cylindrical vaults as the ceiling; the three upper tiers do not have interfloor ceilings. They are a tower consisting of four corner pylons connected along the perimeter in the area where the tiers join.

The bell tower of St. Sophia Cathedral is the bell tower of St. Sophia Cathedral in Kyiv, a monument of Ukrainian architecture in the Ukrainian Baroque style. It is one of the Ukrainian national symbols and symbols of Kyiv.

Built in 1699–1706 at the expense of Hetman Ivan Mazepa.”
