Sugar Mills of Florida - the Dummett Sugar Mill Ruin

A spatial documentation survey was conducted at the Dummett Sugar Mill Ruins in Volusia County, FL., in April 2009. At this time, the mill and its site plan region, were digitally recorded using TLS survey techniques. From these data, a 3D model of the site and registered laser scan data was archived with the idea that these data would stand as a snap shot of current conditions at the site, and could prove useful to conservators, engineers, and architects at a later date. Following the survey a wall collapsed at the ruins and the site data along with a comparative survey was used for engineering and restoration work.
