Conservation and Computers: A Reconstruction of Inigo Jones's Original Whitehall Banqueting House, London c.1620

Vaughan Hart, Alan Day and David Cook

In this short paper a photogrammetric survey of Inigo Jones's Banqueting House, Whitehall, London and computer-aided design software (CAD) is used to visualise the original Banqueting House, prior to alteration. This points out the potential of CAD for building conservation in general, and for reconstruction by historians of ruined or recorded buildings.
