There exists a very large amount of damaged buildings in Cultural Heritage in the old Centre of Bucharest. Common damages are related with structural deformations (lack of verticality, crashes, e.g.) and the degradation of the support (deteriorated materials, e.g.). Dense information is needed for both of them. Non-intrusive methods based in laser scans provide a 3d support with dense information with a low human cost. Terrestrial laser scanners deliver a dense pointwise sampling of an object’s surface. In many respects, laser scanning follows the same general surveying process as other instruments: data is collected in the field, adjusted to the appropriate coordinate system, and relevant features can be extracted to produce deliverables ranging from topographic maps, coordinate values, 2D or 3D CAD drawings etc.
