Manual Photogrammetry – Combining Different Flights

The orbital scan is the most efficient aerial manual photogrammetry flight type for relatively small objects. But if your subject falls out of the category of being relatively small, what to do then? Combining multiple types of flights can often be the answer. In this article, we will scan a larger

Smartphone Photogrammetry for Stockpile Scanning

Photogrammetry is accessible to everyone. Nowadays, we carry a device capable of taking decent photos every day, and you only need that to create a 3D model of your own. But what about professional applications? Can you use your phone to take pictures of a stockpile and measure it with applicable ac

Pixpro and PVsol

We utilize photogrammetric 3D data for various industry-specific use cases. One of those use cases is building scans needed for accurate and interactive solar panel visualization and simulation. PVSOL is a powerful software that can provide these things for PV industry professionals, but it needs da

Pixpro And SolarEdge

To use photogrammetric data in a specific industry – you need to use specialized tools. SolarEdge designer is a tool for PV professionals that can help to create a simulation and a report of to-be-installed solar panels for residential and industrial roofs.

3D Printing and Photogrammetry

3D printing and photogrammetry are becoming two tightly integrated disciplines. The connection is clear – photogrammetry captures 3D data, and 3D printing allows turning it into something physical.

Winter Photogrammetry

Winter weather hits unexpectedly every year at about the same time. Every professional working outside has to adapt and overcome winter conditions. It includes photogrammetry professionals doing aerial drone work, heavily impacted by weather.

GCP Workflow in Pixpro

Ground control points – are an essential part of photogrammetry. They provide the best possible absolute accuracy compared to the real world. Because ground control points are part of the scene itself – they are superior to any photo metadata information.

Thermal Photogrammetry Basics

Thermal images reveal what the human eye cannot see. The camera sees in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum, clearly allowing it to visualize heat emanating from any object or surface.

Roof Scanning With Photogrammetry

3D roof scanning for inspection and solar panel installation is one of the most common and accessible use cases for photogrammetry. If you are working in this area and looking to take advantage of photogrammetric workflows – this article is for you.
