In this video, I explain in way too many minutes what exactly photogrammetry is, what it is used for, and how to do it with the DJI Mini 3 Pro.
I show a detailed example of manual capture at the Saissac Castle ruin, in the south of France.
I then give an example of how to process the captured images using two different softwares : 3DF Zephyr, which is a commercial software, and Meshroom, which is free and open-source. Note that a free demo version of 3DF Zephyr exists but limits you to 50 photos, if you want to try it out for yourself.

photogrammetry, virtual reality, and 3D graphics processing will all be perfected in the next decade. The Matrix will be amazing.

@vandamnit2668 8 месяцев назад

Wow thank you for this! I’m a drone pilot and I also do 3D modeling, I would have never thought to put the two together. This will be a fun project for me.

@tibbs3112 4 месяца назад

Hey guy, it's been 3 months. Did it work for you!?

@vandamnit2668 4 месяца назад

@constantinosschinas4503 5 месяцев назад

Very nice complete tutorial. You could also mix photos taken from close inside the castle. Either by holding the drone by hand, or flying it with caution inside. That would raise quality to the inside at eye level, to be used for a POV walkthrough.

@AgniesMTDronesandPixels 4 месяца назад

My thought as well - I think with hyperlapse the only problem is that you don't control all parameters.

@f13dfx 7 месяцев назад

Great introduction to photogrammetry and new subscriber here. In your model, if you were able to take photos with an iPhone or DSLR of the lower portions at eye level, would you be able to incorporate this with both of the photogrammetry software you were using to create a more detailed 3D model. I was thinking more in terms of Real Estate models.

@TerryMcGearyScotland 10 месяцев назад

That was an eye-opener! Thanks. Was that with the Meshroom?

@dodzb7362 11 месяцев назад

i am thinking about localized smaller orbits. That castle is rectangular shape. Perhaps perform 3 of 4 small orbits on different sections of the castle. In my head might yield better data.

@incredifall 11 месяцев назад

@BlairAir 7 месяцев назад

Very good priner on the subject 👌🏻 - one thought: could you not use hyperlapse- manual ir better: Circle with 2 secobd intervals, slow speed at several altitudes to capture the photos? Im always trying to use available features / tools to autonate a process such as the photo captures.

@solracosouturf9939 11 месяцев назад

un grand Merci pour cette vidéo, car un DJI Lidar, ou Mavic 3 entreprise ça fait cher pour un amateur que je suis. Je m'interroge sur le sujet mais concernant la topographie pour la recherche de possibles tumulus , ou l'identifications d'anciens routes sur des terrains assez dégagé, cette technique est elle applicable ? ou il y a il des logiciels plus adapté ? ou avez vous des conseilles / recommandations , merci

@VespertiliKildem 4 месяца назад

It looks like a freaking videogame stage, a literally 3D location. Beautiful. I will try doing this, thanks! But what are the real applications of photogrammetry? What can I do with it?

@submergedstories 6 месяцев назад

This was a great video! You should make a tutorial as to how you loaded the model into the video to create your intro next :)

@Baleur Месяц назад

Thats insanely good results given you only used 50 photos when doing the live demo. Holy cow. And tbh 40 min generation time for the full dataset isnt bad at all either. I was expecting 6 hours or something.

@martinboom01 3 месяца назад

Thank you for this great video. Question. Is there some possibility how you can allow people interactively rotate these objects on websites? Player or widget, you know. For example selling purposes. Real estates … Thank you

@ruggeroaebi 14 дней назад

Salu Jérôme Thank you very much for the SUPER interesting and very instructive tutorial! I have benefited a lot from your great video! Of course I subscribed immediately ;-) I'm currently familiarizing myself with photogrammetry. Also with my Mini 3 Pro, a brilliant drone. May I ask you Jérôme, if you could possibly provide me with all the photos you took of this beautiful castle ruin? I would love to use them for personal training. For my personal use only, of course. Under no circumstances would I pass on or publish the pictures. That would be great and I would be very grateful. Have a nice weekend and greetings from Switzerland

@dogzillamonster Год назад

Truly excellent, thank you. Am very curious about trying photogrammetry, also with a Mini 3 Pro. Question: If you produce a gorgeous 3D model using for example 3DF or Meshroom, are the viewers for your audience easy, or do they have to install that software too?

@jerometabeaud9400 11 месяцев назад

Once the 3d model is exported to a .obj file for example, any 3d software will be able to display it, including the default Windows 3D mesh viewer. No need to install the photogrammetry software just for visualising the end result.

@kirillolar7614 Год назад

Thanks for the tutorial! If I remember right, DJI Mini 3 pro has a function to record metadata in captions for the videos, like coordinates, iso, focal length etc. So I believe it is possible to make a good model from photogrammetry using individual frames from the video if you can extract data from the captions for the each frame. In programming perspective I could write a script for that so the next time I will try to check this possibility

@banned_user 11 месяцев назад

Let us know

@jerometabeaud9400 11 месяцев назад

Most photogrammetry softwares actually implement the extraction of frames from a video. You can also do it using DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, or any paid or free video editing software. Even Blender can do it ! I've done a lot of photogrammetry from videos, it works fine usually.

@mi-keenterprises 10 месяцев назад

Am I right in thinking that the same process can be used in terrain mapping and construction projects?

@rlegal261 10 месяцев назад

38:23 its a great video sir, how you render that model to a video ?

@jan-of-finland 5 месяцев назад

Hi, did you shoot in the 48MP or 12MP mode? I would like to see a comparison, if the megapixels make that much a difference, in terms of texture detail and geomatry accuracy. I guess it's more about capturing close-up photos from different angles than just the megapixels. I am a little bit on budget and was planning to just buy the Mavic Mini with a 12MP sensor for cheap. Thanks!

@ko95 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the great walkthrough! Does the 3d model/export retain spatial data that can be used to scale object with some degree of accuracy? For example automatically setting world size so I don’t have to guess the units in an imported scene ?

@TickleThyBrain 4 месяца назад

Yes. 3d models are spatially modelled to scale. Their accuracy depends on several factors like GPS accuracy etc. But you can extract measurements like height, width, length, area and volume from 3d models.

@mosheattas2104 Год назад

Hi, thank you for the instructional video. You mentioned that all the orbital pictures were taken at the same height. Is it only one orbit? if you do another orbit at a different height, the software would be able to produce a better end outcome?

@jerometabeaud9400 Год назад

Yes, generally speaking, the more photos you take, the better the result can be. However, the photos need to be taken with sufficent separation from one another, in order to add information to the mesh. Doing a few other orbits at different distances would also help to capture more detail in the object (the closer you are, the better the resolution). But be careful with the alignment process : if you do not have sufficient photos that "link" two orbits, the software might have a hard time aligning the different orbits to produce a single, good mesh. I would recommend taking intermediate pictures while getting closer/farther, or moving to a higher or lower altitude.

@mxmmgn Год назад

Merci beaucoup 👌 Vraiment topp !! 10:57 Question, why not use the 48MP mode ?

@jerometabeaud9400 11 месяцев назад

48 Mpx mode would produce sharper and more detailed results, but each capture takes at least 2-3 seconds to be processed. The standard 12 Mpx mode is much faster and allows for fast and effective capture. But if you have more time, then I would suggest using the 48 Mpx mode.

Hi, I use Insta360 camera to scan retail stores. I use the 360 images to build a "walkthrough of the store". We would like to use the same images or point cloud to build a 3d model of the retail store. can you recommend how to do this?

@paulrandig 4 месяца назад

Thank you for this good tutorial. As an architect with a Mini 3 Pro, you gave me the kick to dive into this! Question: What file types do this programs export? It would be phantastic to be able to import those models into my CAD programs. What about the file size?

@TickleThyBrain 4 месяца назад

Photogrammetry programs can output an orthophoto (2d), DTM and DSM which can be used in CAD software.

@eyedeeproduction5542 3 месяца назад

Hello. Why you dont turn arround the castle by filming it. Editing the video to produce 24 img/s in jpeg output. And finally add all these pictures in the 3DF Zephyr software ?

@travismusgrove6899 6 месяцев назад

so why not use the autonomous mapping function to get all angles?

@brentfabian4691 8 дней назад

I'm in construction and would love to incorporate this into the business. Question...Can you, say, take a 3D model of a property using the drone and in post production add in another model of a pergola or outdoor kitchen area?

@wrybread 4 месяца назад

Does anyone have a suggestion for a utility to build a good 3D model that lets you install more than 50 pics and is a bit cheaper than 3DF Zephyr, which is $200 for more than 50 pics?

@whitesnake329 11 месяцев назад

How would this model compare in Agisoft Metashape ? Better or worst? Could you supply the model pictures for a comparison in other software's such as PIX4D which I also have !

@jerometabeaud9400 11 месяцев назад

I have not tried to reconstruct this particular subject in Agisoft Metashape. And sadly, I lost all the source files. From my experience, the mesh tends to be smoother in Metashape, the smoothing step must be more aggressive by default.

@nickcoomber4798 11 месяцев назад

Pix4d wouldn't give a great outcome. It rarely does for 3d vs metashape, reality capture or contextcapture.

@joshuadavis2062 9 месяцев назад

Is the software more graphics or processor heavy? Or both?

@jerometabeaud9400 8 месяцев назад

It uses both, really. Some steps of the calculations are GPU-heavy, while others are CPU-only, it really depends. But if you want good performance overall, you better invest in a decent rig all-around.

@joshuadavis2062 8 месяцев назад

@@jerometabeaud9400 its pretty good, 4090, 13th gen I7 just wondering if I would need to upgrade to an I9 for better performance or if it would matter that much
