Abstract
Digital technologies have gained significant traction over the past decade in cultural heritage conservation and management. Modern technologies have been increasingly used in docum-enting, conserving, interpreting, and presenting cultural heritage sites, monuments, and objects. Particularly 3D modeling techniques have become a useful tool when it comes to reconstruction and accurate representations of monuments and architectural remains that sustained significant degrees of damage and destruction. 3D modeling can be used to reconstruct the morphology, color, and texture of damaged features making it possible to effectively communicate their values and significance to the general public. In this study, 3D models have been used for the docu-mentation and reconstruction of several important monuments in two famous Greco-Roman Decapolis cities, namely Gadara and Gerasa. 3D laser scanning and image-based modeling techniques were used to generate 3D models of several key monuments in the two cities. 3D modeling technology proves to be an effective instrument for interpreting and presenting these monuments, particularly those poorly preserved due to the adverse effects of nature and humans.
