This paper examines how surveying and monitoring improve our knowledge about ancient buildings, allow the interpretation of their structural response and help in the search for the best solutions for their conservation. The case study of Palazzo del Capitano in Mantua (Italy) is analyzed. In particular, the attention is focused on the use of a Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) for surveying and monitoring too, considering that the building structural control has been performed in combination with other traditional topographic techniques such as geometric leveling and topographic networks for 3D control based on measurements through total stations. The study of TLS monitoring has been tested only in the last decade and it is an innovative method for the detection of displacements of particular surfaces. Till now the research has focused only on the use of TLS monitoring to control large structures and in particular landscape situations; thus its use for a civil construction and historical buildings is a new field of investigation. Despite the fact technological development and new methodologies seem offer new future potential for the analysis of ancient buildings, currently there are still important limits for the application of the investigated surveying and monitoring techniques.
本文探讨了测量和监测如何提高我们对古建筑的了解，使我们能够解释其结构响应，并有助于寻找保护古建筑的最佳解决方案。文中分析了意大利曼托瓦的卡皮塔诺宫（Palazzo del Capitano）案例。特别关注了地面激光扫描仪（TLS）在测量和监测中的应用，因为建筑物结构控制是结合其他传统地形技术进行的，如几何水准测量和地形网络，以通过全站仪进行的三维控制测量。TLS 监测的研究仅在过去十年中进行过，它是一种用于检测特定表面位移的创新方法。到目前为止，研究仅集中在使用 TLS 监测来控制大型结构，特别是景观情况；因此，将其用于民用建筑和历史建筑是一个新的研究领域。尽管技术发展和新方法似乎为分析古建筑提供了新的未来潜力，但目前调查和监测技术的应用仍然存在重要限制。
