Archaeoastronomical research often suffers from lack of data about the three-dimensional situation of prehistorical monuments in their respective landscapes. In our project, we have reconstructed, in virtual models, a series of similar Neolithic monuments with alleged astronomical orientation pattern in their respective landscape. Astronomical extensions to the modelling software and to the models, or the direct inclusion of the models into desktop astronomy software, opens up valuable insights into topics long debated only on flat paper maps.
