When people think of drone work, they often picture stunning aerial photos or smooth, cinematic videos. But there’s another side to the technology that’s just as impressive: 3D modeling through photogrammetry.
Unlike traditional photos or videos, a 3D model is a fully interactive representation of a site or structure. Using software, I can stitch together hundreds of high-resolution images captured by the drone to create a detailed, lifelike model. This allows you to explore the site from any angle, zoom in on specific features, and gain a comprehensive understanding of the area.
The applications are vast. For surveyors, architects, and developers, 3D models provide precise measurements, spatial data and point clouds
that support planning and design. They’re also invaluable for monitoring construction progress, managing large estates, or even creating digital twins of heritage sites.
Beyond practicality, the clarity and detail of these models add a level of understanding that flat media simply can’t achieve. Whether you’re analysing structural details or presenting a project to stakeholders, a 3D model offers unmatched insight and engagement.
