PHOTOGRAMMETRY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20230162431 titled 'PHOTOGRAMMETRY

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method, system, and computer program for conducting photogrammetry during a surveying mission using an imaging platform. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • An imaging platform captures multiple images of a target environment during a surveying mission.
  • A representative subset of images is selected from the captured images.
  • The imaging platform sends the selected subset of images to a processing node.
  • The processing node processes the transmitted images to create a virtual model of the target environment.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Surveying and mapping of large areas or complex environments.
  • Construction and infrastructure planning and monitoring.
  • Environmental monitoring and conservation efforts.
  • Archaeological site documentation and preservation.
  • Disaster response and recovery operations.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Traditional surveying methods can be time-consuming and labor-intensive.
  • Manual processing of large amounts of survey data can be challenging and prone to errors.
  • Obtaining accurate and detailed models of target environments can be difficult using conventional techniques.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Faster and more efficient surveying and mapping processes.
  • Improved accuracy and precision in capturing and analyzing survey data.
  • Enhanced visualization and understanding of target environments.
  • Facilitates remote monitoring and analysis of survey data.
  • Enables better decision-making and planning based on detailed virtual models.


Original Abstract Submitted

measures, including a method, system, and computer program, for performing in-mission photogrammetry while an imaging platform is surveying a target environment. a plurality of images of the target environment are captured by the imaging platform. at the imaging platform, a representative subset of images is identified from the captured plurality of images. the imaging platform transmits the identified representative subset to a processing node. at the processing node, the transmitted representative subset is processed to generate a virtual model of the target environment.
