With industrial development, industrial products have become more refined and complex, resulting in increased necessity for manufacturers to come up with a robust method of measurement to check whether or not the products have been produced correctly to meet customers’ needs. As a result, significant attention has been drawn to industrial photogrammetry to satisfy such needs without contacting ...

The need for surveying and recording the cultural property is increasing every day and is demanding proper answers from experts and scientists. The answer to such a problem must be based in the use of photogrammetry and other new technologies whose use must be widely extended. Experts in such technics are not enough in number for solving the problem. This means that they can’t take on their sho...

The use of terrestrial remote imaging techniques, specifically LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) and digital stereo-photogrammetry, are widely proven and accepted for the mapping of geological structure and monitoring of mass movements. The use of such technologies can be limited, however: LiDAR generally by the cost of acquisition, and stereo-photogrammetry by the tradeoff between possible r...

Professional paper Photogrammetry is a technique of measuring 3D coordinates using photography as the main medium of metrology. This paper describes the use of the photogrammetric system in the automotive industry for control and measuring tasks. This contactless method is suitable for industrial application, because the measuring instruments are robust and mobile, so precise measurements are p...

Electricity distribution companies in many countries are required to maintain a regulated clearance space around all powerlines for bushfire mitigation and safety purposes. Vegetation encroachment of high voltage electricity line clearance space is a major problem for electricity distribution utilities. If not properly controlled, vegetation encroachment can lead to bushfire and public safety r...

Earthquakes are among the most catastrophic natural disasters to affect mankind. One of the critical problems after an earthquake is building damage assessment. The area, amount, rate, and type of the damage are essential information for rescue, humanitarian and reconstruction operations in the disaster area. Remote sensing techniques play an important role in obtaining building damage informat...

The word „Phoogle“ is an artificial word that was created for this paper and stands for Photogrammetry and Google. In this paper it is shown how these two different things a measurement technology and an internet search machine are connected and how this connection will open new business models.

A paper recently published in Mathematical Geology raises some concerns, which need to be expressed. The paper is entitled “Hillslope topography from unconstrained photographs” by Heimsath and Farid (2002) and presents a “simple methodology to extract the high resolution 3-dimensional topographic surface from photographs taken with a hand-held camera with no constraints imposed on the camera po...
