Photogrammetry, videogrammetry, and orthomosaics

Photogrammetry builds 3D models from hundreds or thousands of overlapping still photos. Capture is slower, processing can take hours or days, and survey-grade results usually call for ground control points and trained specialists. SkyeBrowse uses patented videogrammetry instead: it builds the model from the frames of one continuous video and processes it in the cloud at about one minute per minute of video, with most models ready 5 to 10 minutes after upload. Studies have validated it to meet or exceed traditional photogrammetry and laser scanning accuracy, reaching 0.1 inch on Public Safety & Enterprise without ground control points. Each model also produces a top-down orthomosaic. These articles explain the methods, the software, and when each one fits.
