Abstract
The study of modern technologies in archaeology and the restoration of architectural objects is extremely important because of the possibility of using them to preserve cultural heritage, discover new artefacts and improve scientific research methods. The aim of this study was to analyse the possibilities of using modern technologies for the rehabilitation and visualization of cultural heritage. The methods used in the course of the study included photogrammetry, comparative method, and analysis. The results of the study showed the significant potential of modern photogrammetry technologies in the preservation and visualization of cultural heritage. In particular, the use of aerial photogrammetry using a drone and ground photogrammetry using a digital camera made it possible to create three-dimensional models of architectural objects with high accuracy and detail. For example, 267 images were collected and processed using a drone for the Marinid Madrasa, Al-Mariniya Madrasa, and the Roma settlement. This data allowed for the creation of detailed three-dimensional models that were used to generate orthophotomaps and a visual inspection of the site. In addition, the export of 2D data and models proved to be effective for further modelling and analysis. This allowed for the development of a three-dimensional digital model that can be visualized, modified, and adapted at any time, which has become a valuable tool for architectural research and documentation. The results of the study confirmed the practical effectiveness of photogrammetric methods in the preservation and documentation of historical heritage. The use of digital models and orthophotomaps can facilitate visual analysis of objects, further research and archiving of cultural property. This approach has the potential for educational and tourism initiatives, engaging a wide audience in the study and appreciation of historical heritage
