This paper presents the issues related to the acquisition and processing of terrestrial photogrammetry and laser scanning for building educational portals and virtual museums. Discusses the specific requirements of measurement technology and data processing for all kinds of objects, ranging from architecture through sculpture and architectural detail on the fabric and individual museum exhibits. Educational portals and virtual museums require a modern, high-quality visuals (3D models, virtual tours, animations, etc.) supplemented by descriptive content or audio commentary. Source for obtaining such materials are mostly terrestrial laser scanning and photogrammetry as technologies that provide complete information about the presented geometric objects. However, the performance requirements of web services impose severe restrictions on the presented content. It is necessary to use optimalization geometry process to streamline the way of its presentation. Equally important problem concerns the selection of appropriate technology and process measurement data processing presented for each type of objects. Only skillful selection of measuring equipment and data processing tools effectively ensure the achievement of a satisfactory end result. Both terrestrial laser scanning technology and digital close range photogrammetry has its strengths which should be used but also the limitations that must be taken into account in this kind of work. The key is choosing the right scanner for both the measured object and terrain such as pixel size in the performance of his photos.
