Elevate your vision with our drone footage
Stunning aerial photography and videography for construction progress, infrastructure inspections, and much more.
Who are Photogenic Drones?
21st Century Aerial Imaging Solutions
Photogenic Drones provides professional aerial videography, photogrammetry, orthomosaic mapping, and 3D modeling services for a variety of industries including construction, infrastructure, real estate, documentaries, and marketing. Our team of certified; insured drone pilots and imaging specialists capture high-quality aerial footage and data to help our clients achieve their project goals.
Unparalled Experience
Services are available for both short and long term job requirements. We offer both relative accuracy and RTK/PPK centimeter accuracy for your site inspections. Our network of resources is well connected, if we cannot provide a solution you need, we'll refer you to someone who can.
site inspections using photogrammetry & 3d modeling for real world applications
The maps in this gallery are screenshots from Drone Deploy, a 2D/3D modeling program that lets you view and take measurements.
See the line drawn from home plate to the pitchers mound, It shows the distance and the slope height.
This map was flown with a Ground Sampling Distance of 0.3 in/px (without RTK). Maps processed with RTK/PPK, accuracy improves significantly.
Programs like Drone Deploy allow the user to switch seemlessly from 2D and 3D, allowing for better visualization of assets and features resident in the scene.
These programs also support various reports that make sharing information with other stakeholders one click away.
Elevating Your Perspective: drone generated 3d modeling
3D models are useful for many inspection purposes some of which are roof, facade, and asphalt maintenance.
Notice that "wireframe" is enabled in some of the models shown. This simply demonstrates the number of polygons present in a given model.
Any 3D model can be augmented in a 3D program, making it ideal for builders to quickly add/remove features in a scene.
A 3D model may be rendered with many features not native to the scene such as lighting, background, shadows, and much more.
In this example, the shadows are enabled to render based on the a light source (the sun). The previous model in this series, shadows are disabled and the entire scene is illuminated equally.
All of these models were made during flights tasked to process 2D maps. This means the gimbal is aimed straight down. To obtain superior 3D models, multiple flights are flown with the gimbal angled. This captures more subject area, and yields a model with less artifacts.
The process is solely requirement based and depends on how much detail you want in a given model.
This map was shot using RAW with a conversion done later to JPG. RAW has a higher bit depth (more colors) but has a larger file size, even after converting to JPG.
This is the reason for the apparent added depth in texture. After converting to JPG there isn't much data loss but the larger file size will impact processing time.
