PHOTOGRAMMETRY

---

With photogrammetry,the drone can collect high-resolution photographs covering an area of almost any size.

Those photos can then be collectively pieced together to create a detail and data- rich portrait of the site or object being surveyed or analyzed.

instead of just focusing on a single point, photogrammetry uses the overlapping images to create a detailed 3D map of the world; and instead of just displaying elevation data, photogrammetry also collects texture, shape, and colour information for every point on the map -leading to a high definition 3D reconstruction.

A drone system that uses photogrammetry is very useful for capturing 3D and 2D images. It can map large areas and collect data from multiple vantage points. It can get close and capture images, like inspecting a cell phone tower without having to send a worker up there.

Altogether, with photogrammetry, operations can:

-Capture RGB footage

-Build a 3D model of an area

-Generate an orthomosaic (similar to a high resolution Google Earth image
