Creating digital replicas of unique biological findings or archeological artifacts has become a desirable task, which enables to spare original integrity and enhance accessibility of valuable objects to a wide range of experts as well as public. In recent years, specialized scanning devices have been challenged by performance of photogrammetry software tools capable of processing unstructured image sets and providing three-dimensional digital models in return. Simplicity, portability and affordability predetermine photogrammetry to be the method of choice if three-dimensional documentation is to be conducted at remote facilities and outdoor locations. The present paper tests technical limitations of two 3D documentation techniques – close range photogrammetry carried out in Agisoft PhotoScan software and laser scanning conducted with MicroScribe/MicroScan scanning unit while documenting pelvic bones and sacra from the Upper Paleolithic triple burial of Dolní Věstonice, Czech Republic. For photogrammetry, two different approaches to generate closed textured 3D models were confronted – alignment of partial polygonal meshes and joint processing of multiple image sets. Our results showed that photogrammetry provided high-resolution 3D models appended by photorealistic texture. In terms of depicted details, the photogrammetry-generated models were comparable to those of laser scanning. However, the robust performance of the employed algorithm was achieved at the expense of extensive time and labor demands, which for many experts may be difficult to justify. In conclusion, photogrammetry should be considered a suitable substitute for surface scanners only if conducted for occasional and/or out-of-lab documentation tasks.

Lidský obličej, nejvíce viditelná část lidského těla, podává informace o identitě svého nositele, zdravotním stavu a současně podléhá vysokým estetickým požadavkům. Je předmětem zkoumání mnoha klinických oborů, včetně ortodoncie, ve kterých jsou tradiční metody studia stále více doplňovány o pokročilé záznamové metody opojené s počítačovou podporou. Cílem článkuje nastínit možnosti nových technologií, mezi něž patří mimo jiné optické 3D skenování doplněné o vytváření digitálních databází trojrozměrných (3D) modelů, a zároveň představit databázi 3D modelů dětských obličejů, jež vzniká v rámci projektu Laboratoře morfologie a forenzní antropologie Ústavu antropologie Přírodovědecké fakulty Masarykovy univerzity. Jedná se o modely pořízené stereofotogrammetrickým přístrojem Vectra M1. Do databáze bylo doposud zahrnuto 992 jedinců mladších 18 let, ke kterým jsou k dispozici základní demografické a biologické údaje jako je datum narození, pohlaví, místo narození a trvalého bydliště, národnost, výška postavy nebo tělesná hmotnost. Početně bohatá a stále se rozrůstající databáze pokrývá široké spektrum variability lidského obličeje a umožňuje tak další využití v antropologii a v klinických lékařských oborech.

Human face, the most visible part of a human body, gives information about the identity of the person, their health condition, and at the same time it is subject to high esthetic demands. Human face is the subject of research of a number of clinical fields, including orthodontics. Traditional forms of research are innovated by advanced recording methods related to computer support. The aim of the work is to survey new technologies, ineluding optical 3D scanning and creation of digital databases of 3D models, and to introduce the 3D models of children's faces database that is being developed at Laboratory of morphology and forensic anthropology, Department of Anthropology of Faculty of Science, Masaryk University in Brno. The models are made with stereophotogrammetric 3D imaging system Vectra M1. The database already includes 992 individuals below 18 years together with basic demograph/c and biological data (e.g. date of birth, sex, place of birth and permanent address, nationality, body height or body weight). The continually growing database covers a wide spectrum of variability of human face, and can be used in anthopology and clinical medicine.
