An archaeoastronomical study recently accomplished in the Maya area revealed that the architecture on the northeast coast of the Yucatán peninsula is characterized by some peculiar orientation ...trends, which we have not been able to explain in a satisfactory manner. In order to acquire additional information, in November 2015 we measured the orientations of 34 structures at 21 archaeological sites. The book presents the results of this work, as well as some analyses based on all the available data from the northeast coast. Their distribution shows that the percentage of orientations related to the Sun is notably lower than in other parts of the Maya Lowlands.
This monograph presents the results of a study of orientations in prehispanic architecture of western and northern Mesoamerica. Analyzing the alignment data collected with field measurements for a ...number of civic and ceremonial buildings at 21 archaeological sites, we have been able to conclude that they were largely oriented on astronomical grounds. Since the study area is extensive and culturally diverse, while the data sample is relatively small, the orientations that have been analyzed exhibit considerable variability.
This monograph presents the results of a systematic study of orientations in prehispanic architecture of two sub-areas of Mesoamerica. The alignment data for a number of civic and ceremonial ...buildings were collected with field measurements at 42 archaeological sites in the cultural regions of Oaxaca and the Gulf of Mexico.
Prispevek obravnava vseživljenjsko karierno orientacijo, ki se v širšem smislu ne nanaša le na izbiro poklica ali enkratno izbiro poklica, temveč na dinamično aktivnost nudenja pomoči posameznikom v ...njihovem poklicnem razvoju. Skozi svoje aktivnosti pomaga posamezniku pri usmeritvi za izbiro poklica skladno z njegovimi sposobnostmi, naravo poklica in družbenimi potrebami. Posameznika prav tako usmerja na področje dela, ki najbolj ustreza njegovim psihofizičnim lastnostim in kjer ima največ možnosti za uspeh.
The interactive method of orientation between 2D photographs and a 3D height model presented with a point cloud is described. The orientation parameters of the 2D photograph (rotations and location ...of the camera) are derived using the interactive searching for the best fit of the projected 3D height model points on the image. This method requires good operator’s knowledge of the photograph and its details and above all a lot of time. The most suitable photographs for the interactive method of orientation are the panoramic ones, with removed distortions. On the photograph there should be many easily found targets or details (edges ...). The method was developed for the error search in the laser scanning point cloud (Rönnholm et al., 2003a, 2003b). In this paper a test of the usefulness of the interactive method of orientation on the example of Horizont nonmetric panoramic photographs of the Triglav glacieris presented. Because of the lack of good details seen on the photographs and in the 3D model, we derived only approximate values for the orientation parameters. Unfortunately this is not enough for conducting measurements of height difference out of the Horizontphotograph. If correct values of orientation were available, the height differences between the 3D model and photographs could be measured. This would be done with shifts of the 3D point images on two Horizont photographs, so that they would fit the photographsbetter. The 3D model presents the state of the Triglav glacier in the year 2005. The Horizont photographs present the state of the glacier in each month from 1976 on.
