Several studies have explored the use of hologram technology in architecture and urban design, demonstrating its feasibility. Holograms can represent 3D spatial data offer an immersive experience, potentially replacing traditional methods such as physical 3D, offering a promising alternative to mixed-reality display technologies. visualize realistic scenes buildings, cityscapes, landscapes using novel view synthesis technique. This study examines suitability collected through Gaussian splatting method for tabletop visualization. Recent advancements algorithms allow real-time collection higher quality compared photogrammetry neural radiance fields. Both visualization share similarities recreating without need mesh reconstruction. In this research, unmanned aerial vehicle-acquired primary image were processed reconstruction techniques subsequently visualized holographic displays. Two experimental environments used including building university campus. As result, has proven be ideal source visualization, new possibilities motion holograms real digital twin.
