The research focuses on the Gümüşhane Metropolitan Rum Church, a culturally significant edifice that has deteriorated over time owing to natural and human-caused factors. High-resolution aerial photographs were obtained with the DJI Phantom 4 drone and processed using Agisoft Metashape to generate a detailed three-dimensional point cloud. This data was georeferenced with the Geomax Zenith 10 GNSS/GPS. Following the application of statistical outlier elimination to filter the point cloud data, the processed model was imported into SolidWorks for solid modeling. This approach enabled the creation of a realistic digital reconstruction of the structure, offering valuable insights for restoration design and structural analysis. The study highlights the pivotal role of point cloud technology in preserving cultural heritage by facilitating precise monitoring and restoration of historic structures.
