In 2015 Tallon meticulously mapped Notre Dame Cathedral using laser scanners mounted on a tripod. These devices scan the surrounding three-dimensional area sending out laser beam sweeps. The device then measured the distance between every point the laser hits and the device itself. This allowed for the reconstruction of Notre Dame with an accuracy of 5 millimeters.
Tallon conducted these surveys from 50 locations throughout the interior and exterior of the cathedral. In total, he collected over 1 billion points of data to reconstruct the cathedral.On top of that, Tallon took spherical panoramic photographs from the exact spot as the laser scanner. He then tied in each laser point collected to a pixel color from the photograph. What this produced is truly exquisite. A photorealistic 3-D replication of Notre Dame Cathedral down to 5mm.
Tallon's"beautiful idea" will hopefully mark him in history books as one of the saviors of Notre Dame Cathedral.

YouTube mistakenly links Notre Dame fire to September 11 attacksA YouTube feature designed to combat misinformation offered some of its own during a major news event Monday: It linked the fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral to the September 11 terrorist attacks. The company blamed the mixup on its algorithms. This is what happens when a generation of people gets its news from people who just repeat what they see on reddit and chan. The Venn diagram of those pushing hoaxes to those supporting Trump would be a perfect overlapped circle. Will CNN have a feature designed to combat misinformation soon or.. ?
