Documentation and conservation of cultural heritage and rural architecture, as one of the important factors in introducing its background and identity, requires precise and capable tools to perform accurate surveys as well as collect the information needed to perform documentation, evaluations, statistical analysis, management, and monitoring of a historic site or monument. Otherwise, these valuable assets will be forgotten. To this end, this research aims to document the rural architectural heritage by examining the potentials of close-range photogrammetry in geometric modeling of these properties, which can be used as an alternative or complement to traditional methods. In this regard, the entrance of Sorkhay house located in Ushtabin village (East Azerbaijan), has been modeled as a case study using close-range photogrammetry, and various products have been produced from it. The entrance of Ushtabin Sorkhay house is one of the historical heritage properties of this village with no accurate documentation which demonstrates the necessity to preserve it for future generations. While examining the capabilities of close-range photogrammetry in geometric modeling and documentation of rural architectural heritage, the study has particularly examined and evaluated the results of the documentation of the Sorkhay house entrance. One of the achievements of this research is the preparation of accurate qualitative and quantitative information with as much detail as the inscriptions on the entrance of the Sorkhay house in Ushtabin village. Moreover, detailed information about this historical monument including 2D and 3D maps and models, triangulated irregular network, 3D model with real texture and cloud points are among the documented information of this building. It should be noted that the Canon PowerShot A2400 IS non-metric digital camera was used to photograph this building and the geometric modeling of the work was done with Agisoft software.
