The ancient village of Ondinggu, which was destroyed by the fire, "came alive" on the misty land.

Wengding Ancient Village, located in Lincang, Yunnan, is known as "the last primitive village in China". In the Wa language, "Weng Ding" means "the fog is lingering, and people and gods live together". It is a "Xanadu" surrounded by mountains and pleasant scenery, and it is also the most intact Wa village in China.

However, a fire destroyed these.

2021February 14 17: 40, a fire broke out in Wengding Ancient Village. In just a few hours, the ancient house of 104 was burned down, which is regrettable.

The transformed "Wengding Ancient Village"

Coincidentally, a friend who loves aerial photography recorded the original data of this ancient village and uploaded the aerial photography data to Cloud Earth for modeling. The "Wengding Ancient Village" that has completely disappeared is once again presented to people.

According to Jian, a modeling user of Wengding Ancient Village, "At present, the model of Wengding Old Village is out of print. I am very happy and hope that more people can appreciate the original appearance of the old village through the cloud platform."

The looming "Guanyin Pavilion"

On the cloud earth, Wengding ancient village is not a special case, and Guanyin Pavilion, known as the "first pavilion of the Yangtze River", also appears in it. Guanyin Pavilion, also known as Longpanji Temple, is located on the Yangtze River Longpanji outside Xiaodongmen, Echeng District, Ezhou City, Hubei Province. It still stands in the center of the Yangtze River, guiding the ships coming and going.

When the rain increases every year, more than half of Guanyin Pavilion's "body" will be submerged by the tide, or even exposed to the eaves, so there are not many opportunities to see its whole picture every year. With the passage of time and the erosion of rivers, Guanyin Pavilion itself was inevitably destroyed. Therefore, since the Song Dynasty, local people have been trying to protect Guanyin Pavilion, but most of them are mainly repaired by hand.

With the rapid development of science and technology, the emergence of three-dimensional reconstruction technology has opened up a new path for the protection of material and cultural heritage. It is based on this technology that Guanyin Pavilion, which is full of architectural features and classical charm in the south of the Yangtze River, can achieve "eternal life" on the cloud platform.

The three-dimensional digital Guanyin Pavilion model can also be shared with friends through the cloud and the earth. Even if the river overflows, people can still see "Fanghua" at a glance.

Cloud earth promotes the protection and reconstruction of cultural relics

As a historical and cultural relic country, China needs to rescue and restore tens of thousands of cultural relics every year. The development and destruction of human factors, the baptism of natural environment such as wind, sun, rain, snow and first frost. Destroyed ancient sites, such as murals, grottoes, villages and buildings. Many ancient sites with key protection significance are gradually leaving us, and the road of cultural relics protection still has a long way to go.

Tilt photography aerial photography technology can collect high-precision two-dimensional information data of ancient sites, and generate a real-life three-dimensional model based on the domestic real-life three-dimensional cloud platform-Cloud Earth, which can not only make the material cultural heritage "stand up and live" in the digital world, but also have important reference value and significance for the follow-up monitoring, management, restoration and reconstruction of cultural sites.

Rebuilding "Yinzhai Buyi Performing Arts Hall"

It is understood that Beijing, Hebei, Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hubei and other major cultural provinces have successively started the digital protection and management of cultural relics. However, as a member of China's long history, the protection of cultural heritage is also closely related to individuals.

As a lightweight three-dimensional cloud platform, Cloud Earth sincerely hopes to join hands with various modeling armies to jointly protect the national cultural heritage.

From Cloud Earth User: Chen Jin Soul

We look forward to and invite friends from all over the country who love shooting to save the photos of local ancient cultural sites and restore them on the cloud earth, so that more three-dimensional information of ancient sites can be preserved at the lowest cost, and the seeds of cultural communication can gradually take root and sprout with the development of science and technology.
