aerial photogrammetry

Aerial photogrammetry is a technique that uses photographs taken from aircraft, drones, or satellites to create detailed maps and 3D models of the Earth's surface. By capturing overlapping images from different angles, software analyzes the locations of common points to measure distances, elevations, and shapes. This process allows for accurate terrain analysis, urban planning, environmental monitoring, and construction assessment. Essentially, it transforms images into precise spatial information, enabling detailed visualization and measurement of landscapes without being physically on the ground.
