Drone Photogrammetry:
Our Passion, but what is it?
Photogrammetry, in its simplest terms, is the process by which a large number of photographs are combined into a single very high-definition image. By combining nadir (straight down) and oblique (side) images a 2D map and 3D model of an area can be derived.
Drones are the best tool to efficiently and cost-effectively take hundreds (if not thousands) of photographs at regular intervals, in order to cover an area with ample overlap between photographs for the photogrammetry software.

Photogrammetry can then be used to create a simplified digital representation of an area in both 2D and 3D as demonstrated in the following video:
