There are definitely people out there making 3D models of monuments, one example being http://www.noe-3d.at/ , a website for monuments in Lower Austria.The time time and effort needed to create a model out of several hundred pictures (depending on the size of the monument) are quite high though. Nevertheless, it would be cool if contests could get creators to submit their models under a free license! :-)
