Notre Dame Cathedral fire: How a video game and 3D laser scans could help the reconstruction effort


As France prepares to reconstruct the fire-ravaged Notre Dame Cathedral, a famous video game could be a vital tool in the rebuilding effort. A painstakingly-created digital representation of Notre Dame is one of the backdrops in the game, developed by Ubisoft. It’s very difficult to take a big picture of Notre Dame and capture every single detail. In 2015, National Geographic reported that Tallon’s use of laser scanning uncovered anomalies in the structure of Notre Dame. Notre Dame’s famous bell towers survived Monday’s devastating fire, but construction on the famous cathedral began in 1163.
