Frequently asked questions.
what is photogrammetry?
Photogrammetry is the process of constructing digital 3D models from 2D images.
Why not use lidar?
We are interested in offering LiDAR based solutions in the future, but photogrammetry is often suitable for many of the tasks associated with LiDAR. The price we would have to charge our clients to get a return on investment for LiDAR equipment is much higher. So please enjoy workable and presentable 3D models at the fraction of the cost.
What can I do with a 3d model?
That’s the beauty of it, what ever you want or nothing at all. If you want a 3D model for advertising a property, for promotional material, or for reviewing a project; modifying the model will not be necessary. If you want to use a photogrammetry model for something like a proposal or architectural visualization then you will need to edit it or find a 3D artist who will edit it.
How accurate is photogrammetry?
In a perfect scenario, it can be as accurate as ± 0.75inch. However if an object is perfectly white (like a vinyl fence in direct sunlight) or perfectly black (a solar panel or dark shadow) there is data loss and there may be some artifacts in the 3D models.
What quality can you offer for videoS/PHOTOS?
We can offer 4K/60 fps videos and 4K resolution images. We provide raw video but we can edit your photos.
Are your drone operators licensed?
Yes, all of our drone operators are licensed by the FAA.
I Saw your drone trespassing over my property!
No you did not. Drones used for legitimate commercial purposes are not subject to UTAH S.B. 111. As stated from lines 142 to 145:
142 This chapter does not apply to a person or business entity:
143 (1) using an unmanned aircraft for legitimate educational or business purposes; and
144 (2) operating the unmanned aircraft system in a manner consistent with applicable
145 Federal Aviation Administration rules, exemptions, or other authorizations.
