Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 3 D mapping: Choosing the right combination

Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 Depends on the Project Requirements Example 01 • Large Areas • Purpose: Base Mapping • Difficult to Obtain Control Points or Want to minimize the Cost of Survey • Large Scale Mapping • Deliverables: Orthos, Contours, DTM…etc • Flying Permits Easy to Obtain • Timeline is not critical Digital Aerial Photography Technology (Push Broom or Frame Based)

Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 Depends on the Project Requirements Example 02 • • • Application Base Mapping Small Area Flying Permits Difficult to Obtain Accuracy is not Tight Timeline is critical Stereo Satellite Imagery (Quick. Bird, World. View, Geo. Eye , SPOT, IKONOS)

Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 Depends on the Project Requirements Example 03 • Application : Utility mapping, Corridor Mapping • Area Difficult to Fly during the Daytime because of proximity to Airport • Timeline Critical Li. DAR Technology Complement with satellite imagery if the Imagery is required

Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 Depends on the Project Requirements Example 04 • Quick ortho along with detailed 3 D feature mapping • Large Project Area Li. DAR with Aerial Photography

Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 Future of Photogrammetry

Geospatial World Forum Jan 19 -21, 2011 Future of Photogrammetry • Very high resolution (<20 cm) satellite stereo • Automatic 3 D feature extraction • On the fly ortho mosaic • Web based Photogrammetry • Photogrammetry on the cloud • RDBMS support for storage and publishing 12
