This paper investigates the correlation between UAS flight characteristics for data acquisition and the quality of the derived maps and 3D models of geological monuments for VR geovisualization in different scales and timeframes. In this study, we develop a methodology for mapping geoheritage monuments based on different cartographic scales. Each cartographic scale results in diverse orthophotomaps and 3D models. All orthophotomaps and 3D models provide an optimal geovisualization, combining UAS and VR technologies and thus contributing to the multitemporal 3D geovisualization of geological heritage on different cartographic scales. The study area selected was a fossilite ferrous site located in Lesvos Geopark, UNESCO. The study area contains a fossil site surrounding various findings. The three distinct scales that occur are based on the object depicted: (i) the fossilite ferrous site (1:120), (ii) the fossil root system (1:20), and (iii) individual fossils (\u22651:10). The methodology followed in the present research consists of three main sections: (a) scale-variant UAS data acquisition, (b) data processing and results (2D\u20133D maps and models), and (c) 3D geovisualization to VR integration. Each different mapping scale determines the UAS data acquisition parameters (flight pattern, camera orientation and inclination, height of flight) and defines the resolution of the 3D models to be embedded in the VR environment. Due to the intense excavation of the study area, the location was spatiotemporally monitored on the cartographic scale of 1:120. For the continuous monitoring of the study area, four different UASs were also used. Each of them was programmed to fly and acquire images with a constant ground sampling distance (GSD). The data were processed by image-based 3D modeling and computer vision algorithms from which the 3D models and orthophotomaps were created and used in the VR environment. As a result, a VR application visualizing multitemporal data of geoheritage monuments across three cartographic scales was developed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14174259","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,30]],"date-time":"2022-08-30T05:37:55Z","timestamp":1661837875000},"page":"4259","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["VR Multiscale Geovisualization Based on UAS Multitemporal Data: The Case of Geological Monuments"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4122-8450","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ermioni-Eirini","family":"Papadopoulou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, University of the Aegean, 81100 Mytilene, Greece"}]},{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6464-2008","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Apostolos","family":"Papakonstantinou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Marine Sciences, University of the Aegean, 81100 Mytilene, Greece"}]},{"given":"Nikoletta-Anna","family":"Kapogianni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Informatics, University of Piraeus, 18534 Piraeus, Greece"}]},{"given":"Nikolaos","family":"Zouros","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, University of the Aegean, 81100 Mytilene, Greece"}]},{"given":"Nikolaos","family":"Soulakellis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, University of the Aegean, 81100 Mytilene, Greece"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"48","DOI":"10.1186\/s40537-021-00436-8","article-title":"Mapping and 3D modelling using quadrotor drone and GIS software","volume":"8","author":"Budiharto","year":"2021","journal-title":"J.
