FAQs

Photogrammetry is a technique that uses images to create precise measurements and three-dimensional models of objects, structures, or landscapes. By capturing multiple high-resolution photographs from different angles, photogrammetry software processes these images and identifies common points, called tie points, between them. Through complex mathematical algorithms, the software calculates the spatial position and dimensions of the captured objects, generating a highly accurate digital representation.

The accuracy of photogrammetry depends on several factors, such as the quality of the images, the camera calibration, the positioning of ground control points (GCPs), and the photogrammetry software used. In optimal conditions, photogrammetry can achieve accuracies ranging from sub-centimeter to a few centimeters. High-resolution cameras, careful planning, and the use of accurate GCPs can further enhance the precision of the final output. However, it’s essential to note that external factors like atmospheric conditions, terrain, and vegetation can affect the accuracy to some extent.

Despite these potential limitations, photogrammetry is considered a highly accurate technique for various surveying and mapping applications.

The cost of photogrammetry largely depends on the requirements and size of your project as well asĀ  the level of detail needed for it.
