Cultural heritage of a nation forms its identity, inherited from past generations and to be passed to the next. Therefore, it is crucial to preserve it from natural and human effects or even worse, extinction. Throughout time, several approaches were utilized to preserve the cultural heritage from text, drawing, photographs to the modern-day digitized 3D models, points clouds with coordinates, achieving a higher accuracy and more realistic results. This paper focuses on the digitization of cultural heritage using close range terrestrial photogrammetry. The study was conducted on a self-financed low budget, simple equipment and non-professional group of researchers. Al Bidya Mosque, the oldest mosque in the United Arab Emirates, was taken as a focal point of the study, reflecting the country’s cultural and religious heritage built in the 15th Century. The main objective of this study is to investigate how cultural heritage sites can be documented and preserved using close range photogrammetry while exploring the potentials and challenges of close-range photogrammetry.
