Photogrammetry is revolutionizing industries by enabling precise 3D modeling from images. Whether it’s reconstructing crime scenes, preserving historical architecture, enhancing building inspections, or even creating hyper-realistic gaming environments, this technology continues to push boundaries.
In this blog, we explore the many facets of photogrammetry, featuring expert insights, real-world applications, and cutting-edge advancements. From forensic crash scene analysis to drone-based surveys and game development, we’ve gathered some of the most informative resources to help you dive deeper into this fascinating field.
Join us as we uncover the power of photogrammetry—one scan at a time!
Introduction
We have come across this fabulous blog which explains in detail what a photogrammetric survey is, plus the different capturing and processing methods that can be used: https://biblus.accasoftware.com/en/photogrammetric-survey-what-it-is-and-how-to-get-it-in-5-simple-steps/
Crash Scene
When researching some cool ideas for the upcoming Summer Poster, forensics was definitely one of the key players!
In order to appeal to the masses and not make it too crime orientated, we have decided to do a small crash scene investigation. We’ve located a few blogs that talk more in depth about the different technologies used on these crime scenes
1- PIX4D have their own data capture and data processing offering an all-in-one solution. Here they talk through a crash scene scenario where they’ve put their technology to the test: https://www.pix4d.com/blog/crash-scene-analysis-pix4d-forensic/
2- Hexagon have explained how they create a forensic digital twin, taking you through the process and equipment used, as well as some cool annotations: https://blog.hexagongeosystems.com/3d-solutions-for-crash-scenes-and-collision-documentation/
Surveying a Building using Photogrammetry
Architectural photogrammetry is very popular to assess heritage and old buildings around us. Here this blog takes us through the angles, camera settings and more of how to achieve the best results: https://billboyheritagesurvey.wordpress.com/2021/08/10/shooting-for-architectural-photogrammetry/
If you’ve ever bought a house you will most likely have had a roof inspection. This takes it to the next level by using a drone to complete the survey. These surveys provide the client with detailed insights that were previously unattainable without significant time and financial investment!

Gaming
One of the coolest applications of photogrammetry is in the gaming industry, which Artec 3D explain so well in this blog: https://www.artec3d.com/learning-center/photogrammetry-for-games
Photogrammetry can be used to create characters, vehicles and textures in gaming and TV! Something that might surprise a lot of people… The future is definitely bright, as Bolton University explain: https://www.bolton.ac.uk/blogs/the-future-of-games-art-production-photogrammetry-in-games
