<p>Early uses in stereophotogrammetry, the estimation of 3d coordinates from measurements taken from two or more images through the identification of common points. This technology was used throughout the early 20th century for generating topographic maps.</p>
<p>stereophotogrammetry is now being used for capturing dynamic characteristics of previously difficult to measure systems like running <ahref="https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/8348/1/Dynamic-characteristics-of-a-wind-turbine-blade-using-3D-digital/10.1117/12.915377.short?SSO=1">wind turbines</a>.</p>
<p>Photogrammetry is useful for outdoors settings, where all you need is a handheld camera and some patience. In this example, note the loss of quality towards the top, as pixel resolution becomes problematic:</p>

# Key Benefits
<p>Geometry and texture/color in one workflow.</p>
<p>Affordability and flexibility. Depending on the end use application almost any camera will work given there is enough light and your post processing software is robust.</p>
<p>Real time feedback and processing as models improve. <ahref="https://mars.nasa.gov/technology/helicopter/#">Ingenuity Drone</a></p>
