This work presents an innovative and low- cost pipeline conceived for the complete study of underwater sites. The pipeline is inserted in a more complex control scheme, developed with the final aim of obtaining very accurate documentations. Underwater data can be gathered by both divers and robots, and elaborated using a dedicated cloud computing system, which gives to researchers a 3D reconstruction of the explored area and a 3D print of the model in semi-real time. Higher quality 3D models and the relative print can also be obtained in post-processing; the relative outputs are available in the most common formats and in a virtual reality environment. The definition of a structured methodology with the terms of control theory will allow the characterization of analytical indexes useful to evaluate the quality of the investigation.

Abstract
This work presents an innovative and low- cost pipeline conceived for the complete study of underwater sites. The pipeline is inserted in a more complex control scheme, developed with the final aim of obtaining very accurate documentations. Underwater data can be gathered by both divers and robots, and elaborated using a dedicated cloud computing system, which gives to researchers a 3D reconstruction of the explored area and a 3D print of the model in semi-real time. Higher quality 3D models and the relative print can also be obtained in post-processing; the relative outputs are available in the most common formats and in a virtual reality environment. The definition of a structured methodology with the terms of control theory will allow the characterization of analytical indexes useful to evaluate the quality of the investigation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
