Photogrammetry And LiDAR Course Overview
In the past few decades, the rapid growth of Remote Sensing by Aero-Space technology has brought about a paradigm shift in large scale mapping using photogrammetric technics. 2D & 3D Mapping, DSM, DTM generation become much faster and demanding. The unique advantages of Digital Photogrammetry in terms of precision and accuracy offer opportunities for automation of DEM/DTM and integration of images acquired on a multi-platform (Satellite, Aircraft, Drone) and multi-sensor basis.
Photogrammetry by Drone is the science and technology of obtaining reliable information about physical objects and the environment through the process of recording, measuring and interpreting photographic images and patterns of electromagnetic radiant imagery and other phenomena. Photogrammetry is used in 3D City modelling, DEM creation, ortho-photo generations.
LiDAR is a method for measuring distances (ranging) by illuminating the target with laser light and measuring the reflection with a sensor. Differences in laser return times and wavelengths can then be used to make digital 3-D representations of the target. It has terrestrial, airborne, and mobile applications.
