摘要：A scanning device generally referred to as a "laser scanner", used to obtain 3D data of the objects by irradiating laser beams, is enjoying a steady rise in the number of users in the field of cultural heritages, as well as in other fields. This paper is based on an investigation and research to verify the effectiveness of the use of 3D laser scanners in order to obtain 3D information of historic buildings, taking up the case of Prasat Suor Prat N1 tower, Angkor, Cambodia. By using 3D laser scanners, it is possible to quickly preserve cultural properties with complicated shapes as highly precise 3D data, as well as to recreate the 3D image whenever desired, permanently, on the computer displays This is how expectations for the performance of 3D laser scanner have grown over the years, especially in the fields of cultural properties such as historic buildings, where accurate recording is the main concern
