Monitoring and Inspection

3D Roof Photogrammetry with DJI Mavic 4 Pro

3D roof photogrammetry is the best way of measuring, inspecting, and evaluating roofs in many use cases. Our most common use case is either inspection for renovation or solar panel installation and energy simulation.

Natural Pathway Formation - Measurement and Monitoring Arial Photogrammetry

People do not like inefficiency. Sometimes, it is such a subconscious drive that we do not even think about it. A good manifestation of that is "naturally" occurring paths.

Video Frames vs. Photos for Photogrammetry

Photogrammetry uses raster data to calculate a 3D scene. Raster is just another word for images made out of pixels. So, taking photos is the fundamental first step of creating a scan.

Where do we use Photogrammetry? A list of 3D scanning use cases.

​Photogrammetry has revolutionized numerous industries by transforming real world scenes into 3D models, using only simple photographs and processing algorithms.

Roof Scan for Inspection and Solar Panel Addition – Use Case

Roof photogrammetry is one of our client base's most common use cases. Obtaining accurate measurements is essential for designing a solar panel layout, determining how many panels fit on a roof, and conducting a prior inspection.

Resolution vs. Altitude: Do 50 Megapixels Actually Matter?

We all know that megapixels are not the only defining factor of image quality, and the megapixel race is long over. However, we need to know their uses when we have two resolution options.

Dealing with Snow and High Contrast - Aerial Construction Site Scan

Aerial photogrammetry is dependent on the weather conditions, and there is no other way around it. While we can not fly our drones during extreme weather - dealing with something like a little cold or snow is not that hard.

Pixpro Waypoints - Orbitals with 3X Camera

Pixpro Waypoints service is compatible with the latest DJI drones, including Mavic 3 Pro and DJI Air 3, which have 3x cameras. In this article, we will briefly explore using the 3X lens with Pixpro waypoints for inspection and dual capture.

Surface Comparison Part 2

You can compare surfaces with a high level of precision even without accurate RTK GPS data. In the first part of this article, we create artificial GCPs from a base project to use in another project for referencing.
