Integration of photogrammetry within laser scanning approach

Abstract

This article is focused on photogrammetry and its basic parameters for achieving the highest quality output and subsequent application in practice with 3D scanner interconnection. Photogrammetry along with 3D digital spatial scanning is nowadays in demand. Output is more than just a 3D model. It is the actual state of the photographed and scanned object, which is accurate to one thousandths of a millimeter. This procedure is used mainly for the reconstruction of historical buildings, statues, sculptures, but also for the construction of new projects. Photogrammetry consists of several methods and procedures that are directly influenced by software and hardware. The main fields of application are construction, urbanism, forensic science, medical industry, aerospace industry. Photogrammetry can be used in small as well as in complex projects to create visualization of changes created by human or natural activity.
