3D Survey with Apple LiDAR Sensor—Test and Assessment for Architectural and Cultural Heritage
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The research appears very interesting as it aims to study the potential of the LiDAR sensor supplied in Apple devices, testing it in the processing of Image-Based surveys in the field of cultural heritage. The topic covered is well contextualized in the introduction, as it provides a timely presentation of previous studies. The methodology used in data acquisition is well described and the case studies chosen are rightly well differentiated in terms of morphology for the acquisition of as much data as possible. The conclusions adequately summarize the research and the results obtained.
Overall, the contribution is structured in such a way as to provide an organic view of the subject matter, with an exposition in very understandable English and with punctual and pertinent references.
It is recommended the publication in the current version.
Reviewer 2 Report
The article presents an interesting low-cost survey approach using the LiDAR system of the Apple iPad Pro on various examples of cultural heritage. The drafting of the article is clear and the topics covered are easy to understand.
I would invite the author to revise some formal corrections to be made both in the text and in the inserted figures.
