The typical procedure is: >> 1. Collect photography on site
>>2. Download digital images to modelling software >>3.
Produce result, usually within 1 hour.
 Our
system uses a variety of handheld high resolution digital photography,
high viewpoint photography from a telescopic mast, or aerial photography
from a portable helium balloon or aircraft. The speed and accuracy
of the results make
TerraDat photogrammetry
an serious consideration for many applications from quarrying, crime
scene investigation, accident investigation, geological mapping
and much more.
Some downloadable
examples are available below. In order to view and manipulate them

| Quarrying: |
 View
of a quarry showing the impressive ability to map all aspects
of quarry topography that could not be surveyed using traditional
methods due to H&S considerations. Of particular interest
to blasting planning where rock protuberances can be modelled. |
|
| Egyptian
Pharoah |
 An
impressive model from a photograph of an Egyptian statue. |
|
| Historic
Buildings |
 The
gatehouse of Kidwelly Castle in South Wales. Accurate measuements
from the 3D model enable monitoring of subsidence or structural
movement. |
|
| Rock
Outcrop |
 From
a geological perspectice, photogrammetry can provide detailed
models of rock cliffs or rock exposures and enable accurate
measurement of structural information - especially in areas
where it is not possible to gain access. |
|
| Archaeology |
 An
excavated grave from Boscombe Down. This is a high-res model
so takes a while to download, but it is worth it! |
|
| Aerial
urban mapping |
 Stereo
pairs collected from aerial platforms such as our helium balloon
or light aircraft enable impressive models to be created. Useful
for town planning, line of sight analysis, strategic planning
and police work. |
|
| Traffic
Accident |
A reliable
and fast method for acquiring crime / accident scene data in
order to make measurements for forensic investigations. |
