The example below shows the ODM report from a drone mission involving the mapping of a breakwater / harbour entry
Councils are deploying drone technology to observe damage to breakwaters to protect the moored boats and vessels during storms
A study comparing 3D models generated by LiDAR vs photogrammetric obtained data of the lagoon using DJI Matrice 300 L1 and P1
The perfect place to fly a drone as few people around and terrain allows for sharp contrast, i.e. the dam wall drop off and the surroundings
Heavy erosion from recent storms resulted in large sections of the beach being eaten up by the ocean, causing risk to nearby houses
Beach has lagoon exit opening and closing every so often. Perfect place to monitor the effect of east-coast lows and tides on beach dynamics
Example DSM
Example ODM quality report of a photogrammetric data set created with DJI drone and processed using open source WebODM service. Location is a NSW breakwater / harbour and a digital surface model (DSM) is one of the outputs.
Example DSM
Using photogrammetry software (e.g. Pix4D) to create a DSM usually involves a quality report which shows the missions accuracy. This accuracy can be improved using RTK or PPK methodologies and using more sophisticated drone hardware and payloads.
