Photogrammetric Equipment is a technological system that captures and processes aerial images of large areas on a plane. These images are usually captured from cameras mounted on an aircraft or a drone. After capture, these images are processed to create 3D maps or models of the surveyed area.
In the
surveying field, Photogrammetric Equipment has become an essential tool for acquiring data and information about large areas, and it offers many advantages over traditional
surveying methods. Some of these advantages include:
1. Cost-Effective: Photogrammetric Equipment reduces the cost of
surveying by eliminating the need for physically accessing the surveyed area. This eliminates the need for labor-intensive fieldwork, reducing the time required to perform surveys.
2. Accuracy: Photogrammetric Equipment captures extremely accurate and highly detailed images, resulting in highly accurate maps and models.
3. Speed: Because Photogrammetric Equipment captures large areas quickly, it is possible to obtain aerial images of vast tracts of land or inaccessible areas within a short time.
4. Reduced Risk: Photogrammetric Equipment can survey areas that might pose a risk to human
surveyors, such as rough terrain, tall buildings, and hazardous environments.
5. Flexibility: Photogrammetric Equipment can be used for a wide range of surveys, from large urban areas to rural farmlands. It can also be used to survey areas that would be otherwise difficult or impossible to survey using traditional methods.
In summary, Photogrammetric Equipment provides
surveyors with the ability to capture and process aerial images of large areas efficiently and cost-effectively, resulting in highly detailed and accurate maps and models. This technology provides significant advantages over traditional
surveying methods and opens up
surveying to new areas and applications.
