Abstract

This paper presents an educational experience conducted at the ETS Arquitectura in Madrid. The main objective was to optimize the acquisition of certain fundamental concepts of Architectural Drawing through the early introduction of automated digital photogrammetry. The aim was to facilitate the visualisation of these concepts, as well as to motivate students with accessible professional technology. Indirectly, the goal was to contribute to the development of selective and critical thinking in students regarding the results and the information they handled, the means and the ends used, ultimately fostering mature and structured graphic thinking.

A collaborative challenge was set to carry out an architectural surveying of a selected model, structuring the work phases to achieve the objectives. The final outcome of the process would be a complete graphic description of the model. The experience was subsequently evaluated, considering both the graphic results obtained and the feedback from students expressed through surveys, confirming the initial premises, especially regarding student motivation and understanding of concepts such as formal control, measurement, scale, plans and sections, graphic codes and their hierarchy, and architectural surveying.
