}}PhotoModeler is a software application that performs image-based modeling and close range stereophotogrammetry – producing 3D models and measurements from photography. The software is used for close-range, aerial and uav photogrammetry. Close Range Photogrammetry (CRP) can mean photographs taken from the ground with a handheld camera, or taken from a UAV/drone at relatively low altitude. PhotoModeler and CRP are used for performing measurement and modeling in agriculture, archaeology, architecture, biology, engineering, fabrication, film production, forensics, mining, stockpile volumes, etc.[1][2][3] PhotoModeler, first publicly released in 1993, was the first commercial all-digital close-range photogrammetry and image-based-modeling system.[4] ProductsThe PhotoModeler product line currently consists of the base PhotoModeler Standard product, and the super-set product PhotoModeler Premium. FeaturesPhotoModeler creates accurate 3D models (consisting of Points, Lines, Curves, Edges, Cylinders, Surfaces, NURBS, and Shapes), and accurate 3D measurements from photographs taken with most standard cameras (either digital or film). 3D models can be created and exported with photographic textures extracted from the original photographs. Automation is available with coded targets (special 'barcode-like' circular targets placed in the scene before photography). PhotoModeler Premium is a super-set of PhotoModeler Standard and includes all its features – it adds SmartMatch (automated feature detection and matching on photos), DSM (dense surface modeling), capturing geometry over time (4D measurement = 3D + time), volumes, and geographic coordinate systems. File formatsPhotoModeler has the ability to read the following image formats: JPEG (.jpg), Tiff (.tif), Windows BMP (.bmp), PC Paintbrush (.pcx), Targa (.tga), Portable Network Graphics (.png), Pict (.pct), Photoshop (.psd), Portable Pixmap (.ppm), Macintosh Paint (.mac), EA Interchange File Format (.iff), CALS Raster (.cal), PhotoCD (.pcd), Silicon Graphics Image (.sgi), Silicon Graphics RGB (.rgb), Jpeg2000 (.jp2/.jpx), MS HDphoto (.hpd/.wdp). PhotoModeler can import 3D data for comparison, matching, and as control points in the solution. The input file formats accepted are: DXF, Wavefront OBJ, 3D Studio 3DS, and Raw Text files. PhotoModeler exports 3D data to the following formats (some with mapped photographic textures): 3ds, Rhino 3DM, DXF, Filmbox FBX, IGES, Google Earth, Maya Script, 3D Studio Max Script, Wavefront OBJ, Raw, and VRML. ApplicationsSome of the applications of PhotoModeler are: - Accident reconstruction / Forensics[5]
- Archaeology / Paleontology[6]
- Architecture
- Biology[7][8]
- Engineering[9][10]
- Fabrication and Manufacturing
- Film[11]
- Mining[12]
- Situational Awareness (SA)[13]
HistoryDevelopment was started in 1990 by Alan Walford. The first public release was a beta in October 1993. Here is a list of only the significant product changes: - QMeasure beta – October 1993
- PhotoModeler 1 – January 14, 1994
- PhotoModeler 2 – August 31, 1995
- PhotoModeler LX – July 1996
- PhotoModeler 3 – July 18, 1997
- PhotoModeler Lite – March 24, 1999
- PhotoModeler 4 – November 2, 2000
- PhotoModeler 5 – May 15, 2003
- PhotoModeler 6 – February 8, 2007
- PhotoModeler Scanner 6 - April 21, 2008
- PhotoModeler and PhotoModeler Scanner 2010.0 – October 28, 2010
- PhotoModeler, PhotoModeler Scanner, and PhotoModeler Motion 2014.0 - February 4, 2014
- PhotoModeler, PhotoModeler Scanner, and PhotoModeler UAS 2016.1 - September 26, 2016
- PhotoModeler Standard and PhotoModeler Premium 2019.0 - November 19, 2018
AlternativesThe direct alternatives to PhotoModeler are Australis, Elcovision, Photoscan, and Pix4D. CRP software for doing automated high-accuracy industrial measurement is GSI’s VStars. PhotoModeler is now being used more regularly with drone, UAV, and UAS photography (Unmanned aerial vehicle). These vehicles produce photos that are closer to the subject (the ground) than traditional aerial photogrammetry (taken by fixed-wing aircraft with high-resolution cameras at higher altitude). Software packages suited to this other type of aerial photogrammetry are packages such as SOCET SET, or LPS (Leica Photogrammetry Suite). See also- Stereophotogrammetry
