Résumé (en anglais)

Documentation in the sense of inventorying and researching the whole range of monuments and sites remains a highly complex task not only for photogrammetrists but for specialists of very different backgrounds. (...) [This] volume VII of the series Monuments and Sites [deals] with the progress made in a traditional method: building archaeology based on hand-measurements of architects and engineers. (...) This classical method in the form of exact hand measurements will remain indispensable for the practical preservation of monuments and sites. Under certain circumstances drawings of pencil on paper made on the spot will even have far better information value than documentations made with an enormous technical effort. In the meantime the methods of documenting a historic building by drawings have been further developed for conservation purposes as part of so-called "building archaeology", also well-known under the German name "Bauforschung". And especially in the field of building archaeology, where of course modern technical means are used for rationalization (as long as they make sense), depending on the individual case, the limits of mechanized and automatized methods become evident. I would like to thank especially the author, Prof Manfred Schuller, a pioneer of "Bauforschung", who in his introduction has described the development and possibilities of building archaeology as an indispensable instrument of conservation, as well as the many colleagues who have set standards with their contributions to the plates in this publication by documenting monuments of all periods from antiquity to modern times.
